How many times does the electron go round the first Bohr orbit in a second?

Solution
The frequency of electron is given by, 

                     v = v2πr  
where, vis the velocity with which the electrons are moving and, 
r is the radiusof the hydrogen atom.

Velocity, v = 2.2 × 106 m/s 
radius of the orbit, r = 0.5287 × 10-10

  f = 2.2×1062×3.14×0.5287×10-10 = 6.6 × 1015 Hz
