Bohr Model: Orbits, Speed & Angular Momentum

Radius of first orbit in H -atom is ' a0a_0 ' Then, de-Broglie wavelength of electron in the third orbit is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Bohr condition: nλ=2πrn⇒λ=2πrnnn\lambda = 2\pi r_n \Rightarrow \lambda = \frac{2\pi r_n}{n}
  2. r3=9a0⇒λ=2π×9a03=6πa0r_3 = 9a_0 \Rightarrow \lambda = \frac{2\pi\times9a_0}{3} = 6\pi a_0
  3. So the answer is (b) 6πa06\pi a_0.
