An electron is moving around the nucleus of a hydrogen atom in a circular orbit of radius $r$. The Coulomb force $\vec{F}$ acting on the electron is given by:

  • A
    $k \frac{e^2}{r^2} \hat{r}$
  • B
    $-k \frac{e^2}{r^3} \vec{r}$
  • C
    $k \frac{e^2}{r^3} \hat{r}$
  • D
    $-k \frac{e^2}{r^3} \hat{r}$
