AIIMS 2003 Physics Bohr's Model Assertion Reason Question
Assertion : Bohr had to postulate that the electrons in stationary orbits around the nucleus do not radiate.
Reason : According to classical physics all moving electrons radiate.
Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion
Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion
Assertion is true but Reason is false
Both Assertion and Reason are false
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to classical physics, all moving charged particle radiate electromagnetic radiation. So. moving cicctrons will also radiate energy, If we see the. alomic structure we find that electrons revolve around: the nucleus in some particular orbits, Bohr termed these: orbits as the stationary orbits as the electrons do not: radiate energy as long as they are moving in these orbits. This is one of Bohr's postulates. This postulate is based: on the fact that if the moving electrons radiate thereby -. losing energy, they have got a chance to finally fall back | onto the nucleus and the atom will be collapsed,
