The ratio of kinetic energy to the total energy of an electron in a Bohr orbit of the hydrogen atom, is
(a) 1 : 1
(b) 1 : -1
(c) 2 : -1
(d) 1 : -2
The correct option is (b) 1 : -1.
Explanation:
In a Bohr orbit of the hydrogen atom, Kinetic energy = - (Total energy)
So, Kinetic energy : Total energy = 1 : -1
