Physics-Bohr Model

NEET Physics Bohr Model MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-diagram based-Easy-Class 12

Consider a diagram illustrating the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, with circular orbits labeled as n=1, n=2, and n=3. Which of the following correctly describes the condition for the angular momentum of an electron in the n=2 orbit?

Question diagram
A

The angular momentum is 2h/2π.

B

The angular momentum is h/mv.

C

The angular momentum is mv/2π.

D

The angular momentum is 2mv/nh.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

In the Bohr model, the angular momentum of an electron in an orbit is quantized and given by the formula mvr = nh/2π. For n=2, it becomes 2h/2π.
