  • A
    $\lambda \propto \frac{1}{n^2}$
  • B
    $\lambda \propto \frac{1}{n}$
  • C
    $\lambda \propto n^2$
  • D
    $\lambda \propto n$

In Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom,let $PE$ represent potential energy and $TE$ represent total energy. When an electron transitions to a higher energy level,

An orbital electron in the ground state of hydrogen has a magnetic moment $\mu_1$. This orbital electron is excited to the $3^{rd}$ excited state by some energy transfer to the hydrogen atom. If the new magnetic moment of the electron is $\mu_2$,then:

Consider an electron in the $n=3$ orbit of a hydrogen-like atom with atomic number $Z$. At absolute temperature $T$,a neutron having thermal energy $k_B T$ has the same de Broglie wavelength as that of this electron. If this temperature is given by $T = \frac{Z^2 h^2}{\alpha \pi^2 a_0^2 m_N k_B}$,(where $h$ is the Planck's constant,$k_B$ is the Boltzmann constant,$m_N$ is the mass of the neutron and $a_0$ is the first Bohr radius of hydrogen atom),then the value of $\alpha$ is $....$

Let $v_{n}$ and $E_{n}$ be the respective speed and energy of an electron in the $n$th orbit of radius $r_{n}$, in a hydrogen atom, as predicted by Bohr's model. Then:

How many times does the electron go round the first Bohr orbit in a second?
