Let the current 'I' be associated with an electron of charge 'e' moving in a circular orbit of radius ' \(r\) ' with speed ' \(v\) ' around the positively charged nucleus. The ratio \(\frac{r}{v}\) is

  1. A \(\frac{\mathrm{e} \mathrm{I}}{2 \pi}\)
  2. B \(\frac{2 \pi}{\mathrm{eI}}\)
  3. C \(\frac{\mathrm{e}}{2 \pi \mathrm{I}}\)
  4. D \(\frac{2 \mathrm{e} \mathrm{I}}{\pi}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{\mathrm{e}}{2 \pi \mathrm{I}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( I = \frac{e v}{2 \pi r} \) \( \frac{r}{v} = \frac{e}{2 \pi I} \)
