4. A classical atom orbiting at frequency f would emit electromagnetic waves of frequency f because the electron’s orbit, seen edge-on, looks like an oscillating electric dipole. (a) At what radius, in nm, would the electron orbiting the proton in a hydrogen atom emit light with a wavelength of 600 nm? (b) What is the total mechanical energy of this atom?
