The model is based on [[classical physics]] and ignores radiation emitted by the [[electron]] due to it's acceleration. It also supposes that [[electrons]] are only allowed to have certain values ofr their [[angular momentum, or that [[angular momentum]] is '''quantised'''. It correctly predicts, by chance, the relationship beween different levels and their radius and energy. These radius relationship is:

By considering [[Coulomb's Law|Coulomb's law]], the electrostatic [[force]] between the [[electron]] and the [[proton]] and the [[acceleration]] of the electron undergoing circular motion we find:

* It contained electrons orbiting with fixed radii, this was later shown to be false by the [[Heisenberg uncertainty principle]], an effect of which is that the probability of an electron appearing in a location can only be predicted, its path cannot be mapped
