Bohr Model: Orbits, Speed & Angular Momentum

The energy of an electron in an orbit of the Bohr's atom is −0.04E0-0.04E_0 eV where E0E_0 is the ground state energy. If LL is the angular momentum of the electron in this orbit and hh is the Planck's constant, then

2πLh\frac{2\pi L}{h} is ________:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. En=E0n2E_n = \frac{E_0}{n^2}: 1n2=0.04⇒n=5\frac{1}{n^2} = 0.04 \Rightarrow n = 5.
  2. L=nh2π⇒2πLh=n=5L = \frac{nh}{2\pi} \Rightarrow \frac{2\pi L}{h} = n = 5
  3. So the answer is (c) 5.
