Bohr Model: Orbits, Speed & Angular Momentum

The de-Broglie wavelength of an electron moving in the nthn^{th} Bohr orbit of radius 'r' is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Bohr condition: 2πr=nλ2\pi r = n\lambda (whole number of de Broglie waves on the orbit).
  2. λ=2πrn\lambda = \frac{2\pi r}{n}
  3. So the answer is (c) 2πrn\frac{2\pi r}{n}.
