Obtain the first Bohr’s radius and the ground state energy of a muonic hydrogen atom [i.e., an atom in which a negatively charged muon (μ−) of mass about 207me orbits around a proton].

The charge of the muon m=207me​, Bohr radius is given as: re​=1/me​ We know that for the first Bohr orbit  re​=0.53×10−10m So, at equilibrium, mr=me​re​ The radius pf the muonic hydrogen atom  r=2.56×−13m We also know that,  Ee​∝me​;  Ee​=−13.6eV ⇒EEe​​=mme​​⇒E=−2.81 keV
