A particle of mass m moves in a circular orbit in a central potential field U(r) = U₀r⁴. If Bohr's quantization conditions are applied, radii of possible orbitals rₙ vary with nᵃ, where α is---------.

From the given relations:
mv²/r = |dU/dr| = 4|U? |r³ . (1)
mvr = nh / 2π . (2)
By combining equations (1) and (2), we can derive the radius r:
r = ( (nh)² / (4π√* (U? )*) )¹/³ ⇒ r ∝ n²/³
