Problem

The electric potential between a proton and an electron is given by V=V0ln⁡(rr0)V=V_0\ln\left(\frac{r}{r_0}\right), where r0r_0 is a constant. Assuming the Bohr model is applicable, the variation of rnr_n with the principal quantum number nn is (1) rn∝nr_n\propto n (2) rn∝1nr_n\propto \frac{1}{n} (3) rn∝n2r_n\propto n^2 (4) rn∝1n2r_n\propto \frac{1}{n^2}
