(1/(4πε_0 ))((e×e)/r_n ^2 )=((mv^2 )/r_n )  angular momentum=mvr_n =((nh)/(2π))  mv^2 r_n =ke^2    eqn  1      [k=(1/(4πε_0 ))]  mvr_n =((nh)/(2π))      eqn 2  deviding eqn 1 by eqn 2  v=((ke^2 )/(nh))×2π  v=(1/(4πε_0 ))×(e^2 /(nh))×2π=(e^2 /(2ε_0 h))×(1/n)  pls check....

$$\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}\pi\epsilon_{\mathrm{0}} }\frac{{e}×{e}}{{r}_{{n}} ^{\mathrm{2}} }=\frac{{mv}^{\mathrm{2}} }{{r}_{{n}} } \\ $$$${angular}\:{momentum}={mvr}_{{n}} =\frac{{nh}}{\mathrm{2}\pi} \\ $$$${mv}^{\mathrm{2}} {r}_{{n}} ={ke}^{\mathrm{2}} \:\:\:{eqn}\:\:\mathrm{1}\:\:\:\:\:\:\left[{k}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}\pi\epsilon_{\mathrm{0}} }\right] \\ $$$${mvr}_{{n}} =\frac{{nh}}{\mathrm{2}\pi}\:\:\:\:\:\:{eqn}\:\mathrm{2} \\ $$$${deviding}\:{eqn}\:\mathrm{1}\:{by}\:{eqn}\:\mathrm{2} \\ $$$${v}=\frac{{ke}^{\mathrm{2}} }{{nh}}×\mathrm{2}\pi \\ $$$${v}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}\pi\epsilon_{\mathrm{0}} }×\frac{{e}^{\mathrm{2}} }{{nh}}×\mathrm{2}\pi=\frac{{e}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}\epsilon_{\mathrm{0}} {h}}×\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{n}} \\ $$$${pls}\:{check}.... \\ $$$$ \\ $$
