In Hydrogen atom, if the electron is replaced by a particle which is 200 times heavier but has the same charge, how would its radius change..?

The radius of hydrogen atom termed as Bohr radius is inversely proportional to the rest mass of an electron.If the electron is replaced by a particle which is 200 times heavier, then the radius reduces [actual radius divided by 200].
