In the Bohr model of a hydrogen-like atom,the force between the nucleus and the electron is modified as $F = \frac{e^2}{4\pi \varepsilon_0} \left( \frac{1}{r^2} + \frac{\beta}{r^3} \right)$,where $\beta$ is a constant. For this atom,the radius of the $n^{th}$ orbit in terms of the Bohr radius $\left( a_0 = \frac{\varepsilon_0 h^2}{m \pi e^2} \right)$ is:

  • A
    $r_n = a_0 n - \beta$
  • B
    $r_n = a_0 n^2 + \beta$
  • C
    $r_n = a_0 n^2 - \beta$
  • D
    $r_n = a_0 n + \beta$
