The Bohr atom model is derived with the assumption that the nucleus of the atom is stationary and only electrons revolve around the nucleus. Suppose the nucleus is also in motion, then calculate the energy of this new system.

An atom can contain protons which have a positive charge(+) and electrons which gave negative charge (-). When an electron and a proton pair up, they become neutral (0) and cancel the charge out. Now determine the net charge: 5 electrons and 3 protons rarr
