Could i find out the distance (just the distance, not the position) from the center of an atom to the electron without using Bohr's model of the atom, nor the strodinger equation?
because i think i came up with an equation that could find the distance (radius) using the energy levels such as ionization energy, work function, or simply hv=E.
and again this has nothing to do with Bohr or Strodinger equations.
P.S i have never seen an equation like the one i came up with.
the electron radius emerges naturally in my equation.
the solutions are the SAME as if I was using the Bohr model of the atom...

The Bohr model is electromagnetism + quantization. The whole point of the Bohr model is that the electron energies are quantized. With EM alone, you have the energy changing continuously and yes, you will get the same answer at the Bohr radius. EM alone does not explain discrete atomic spectra, EM + quantization does.

Frankly it is all non-sense to be replaced by newer non-sense later on. Try thinking about more useful stuff instead of this c**p science as I call it - no offence intended. P.S I have a PHd from Warwick in Mathematics.

I don't know, but I get 2 points for answering this question.
