  1. A \(\frac{n h}{2 \pi}\)
  2. B \(n h\)
  3. C \(\frac{2 \pi}{n h}\)
  4. D \(\frac{\pi}{2 n h}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{n h}{2 \pi}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to Bohr's model, angular momentum of \(n\)th orbit of hydrogen atom is \(m v r_{n}\) or \(\frac{n h}{2 \pi}\).
