In the hydrogen atom, an electron revolves around the nucleus in a circular orbit of radius \( 5.11 \times 10^{-11} \text{ m} \) with a frequency of \( 6.8 \times 10^{15} \text{ Hz} \). The magnetic field at the centre of the orbit is :

  1. A 6.7 T
  2. B 13.4 T
  3. C 20.1 T
  4. D 26.8 T
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 13.4 T

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2R} = \frac{\mu_0 e f}{2R} \) \( B = \frac{(4\pi \times 10^{-7} \text{ T m/A}) (1.602 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C}) (6.8 \times 10^{15} \text{ Hz})}{2 (5.11 \times 10^{-11} \text{ m})} \) \( B \approx 13.4 \text{ T} \)
