Which of the following statements does NOT form a part of Bohr's model of hydrogen atom?

0.Energy of the electrons in the orbit is quantized.
1.The electron in the orbit nearest to the nucleus has the lowest energy.
2.Electrons revolve in different orbits around the nucleus.
3.The position and velocity of electrons in the orbit cannot be determined simultaneously.
Explanation

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle states that position and momentum cannot be determined simultaneously. This is NOT part of Bohr's model — in fact, Bohr assumed electrons move in definite orbits.
