Q)

The binding energy of a H-atom , considering an electron moving around a fixed nuclei is B=me48n20h2If one decides to work in a frame of reference where the electron is at rest , the proton would be around it. By similar arguments, the binding energy would be , B=Me48n220h2 This last expression is not correct because ,

n would not be integral Bohr-quantization applies only to electronThe frame in which the electron is at rest is not inertial the motion of the proton would not be in circular orbits even approximately
