A to Z Formula

What is the formula for Potential energy of an electron?

In physics, the potential energy is energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors.

P.E. = -e2 / 4πε0r = m e4 / 4 ε02 n2 h2

ε0 = permittivity of free space

e = Charge on an electron (1.6 x 10–19 C)

r = radius of the orbit of an electron

m= mass of an electron

n = positive integer

h = Planck’s constant
