Bohr Model: Orbits, Speed & Angular Momentum

In hydrogen atom, if VnV_n and VpV_p are orbital velocities in nnth and ppth orbit respectively, then the ratio Vp:VnV_p : V_n is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Orbital speed vn∝1nv_n \propto \frac{1}{n}.
  2. VpVn=np\frac{V_p}{V_n} = \frac{n}{p}
  3. So the answer is (b) n:pn : p.
