Abstract
It is demonstrated that the Lorentz force acting on the electron particle in the Bohr's hydrogen atom, as well as the classical radiation energy of that atom, tends to be zero on condition both the electric and magnetic fields in the atom are considered in a definite quantum state. The ratio of the mentioned fields becomes of importance for discussion of the occurence of the electron spin.
