An electron moves around the nucleus in a hydrogen atom of radius 0.05 nm with a velocity of \( 2 \times 10^6 \text{ m s}^{-1} \). The magnetic field produced at the centre of the nucleus is:

  1. A 0.128 T
  2. B 6.4 T
  3. C 128 T
  4. D 12.8 T
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 12.8 T

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( B = \frac{\mu_0 e v}{4 \pi r^2} \) \( B = \frac{(4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \text{ T m A}^{-1})(1.602 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C})(2 \times 10^6 \text{ m s}^{-1})}{4 \pi (0.05 \times 10^{-9} \text{ m})^2} \) \( B = \frac{3.204 \times 10^{-20}}{25 \times 10^{-22}} = 12.816 \text{ T} \)
