From Scherrer's textbook Problem 1.16: Assume that the attractive force between
the electron and the proton in the hydrogen atom follows an arbitrary power law of the form
F = kr for 3-1 and k a constant. Use Bohr's quantization rule for the angular momentum
to show that the energy levels in the hydrogen atom are given by:
En = ²/43
