Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(6.90810^{-16} \mathrm{~s}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(r_1=5.5 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{~m}\) \(v_1=4 \times 10^6 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) As \(r_n \propto n^2\) So, \(r_2=5.5 \times 10^{-11} \times 2^2=22.0 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) As \(v_n \propto \frac{1}{n}\) So,…
