The recoil speed of a hydrogen atom after it emits a photon in going from \(n =5\) state to \(n =1\) state will be ..... \(m/s\)

  1. A \(4.17\)
  2. B \(2.19\)
  3. C \(3.25\)
  4. D \(4.34\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(4.17\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\((\Delta E )\) Releases when photon going from \(n =5\) to \(n =\Delta E =(13.6-0.54)\, eV =13.06\, eV\) \(P _{ i }= P _{ f }\) (By linear momentum conservation) \(0=\frac{ h }{\lambda}- Mv = V _{ Recoil }=\frac{ h }{\lambda M }.....(i)\) And…
