Sample JAVA program to compute the electron's orbit of the oxygen ion (O5+) of Bohr model.

Top page ( correct Bohr model including the two electron atom )

If you copy and paste the program source code below into a text editor, you can easily compile and run this.
(This class file name is MathMethod, so save this text editor as "MathMethod.java", and compile it.)
In this program, we first input the initial x-coordinate r1 (in MM) of electron 1 and the absolute value of the total energy E ( in eV ) of the oxygen ion (O5+).
Here we use the new units, ( 1 MM = 10-14 meter, 1 SS = 10-22 second, 1 MM/SS = 108 m/s ).
From the inputted values, this program outputs the last velocity ( VX,VY in MM/SS ) and number of the de Broglie's waves ( midWN ) contained in one quarter of the orbit.
