JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 12. atoms

Speed of an electron in Bohr's \(7^{\text {th }}\) orbit for Hydrogen atom is \(3.6 \times 10^6\,m / s\). The corresponding speed of the electron in \(3^{\text {rd }}\) orbit, in \(m / s\) is \(........\times 10^6\)

  1. A \(1.8\)
  2. B \(7.5\)
  3. C \(3.6\)
  4. D \(8.4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(8.4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(V _{ n } \propto \frac{ Z }{ n }\) \(Z =1, \therefore V _{ n } \propto \frac{1}{ n }\) \(\therefore \frac{ V _3}{ V _7}=\frac{7}{3}\) \(\therefore V _3 =\frac{7}{3} V _7\) \(=\frac{7}{3} \times 3.6 \times 10^6\,m / s\) \(=8.4 \times 10^6\,m / s\)
