Detailed Solution

In Bohr’s model of the hydrogen atom, Coulomb’s force provides the centripetal acceleration to the electron of mass m moving with velocity υ in an orbit of radius r i.e.,
mv2/r=Ze2/(4π0r2).            (1)
Also, angular momentum of the electron in nth orbit is quantized i.e.,
mvr=nh/(2π).                (2)
Eliminate υ form equations (1) and (2) to get the radius of the nth orbit
rn=0h2n2/(πmZe2).                 (3)
Total energy of the electron in nth orbit is the sum of its kinetic energy K and potential energy U i.e.,
En=K+U=12mv2Ze24π0r=mZ2e4802h2n2,
Where we have used equations (1)_(3) to eliminate r and  υ. The ratio of kinetic energy to potential energy is given by 

KU=12mυ2Ze24π0r=12mυ2(Ze24π0r2)r=12mυ2(mυ2/r)r =12.
