  1. A 0
  2. B 1
  3. C \(-2\)
  4. D 2
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 0

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Linear momentum \(=m v=\frac{m c Z}{137 n}\)
Angular momentum \(=\frac{n h}{2 \pi}\)
Given, Linear momentum \(\times\) angular momentum \(\propto n^{x}\) \(\frac{n c Z}{137 n} \times \frac{n h}{2 \pi} \propto n^{x}\)
\(n^{0} \propto n^{x}\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad x=0\)
