NEET Physics Bohr Model MCQ Question
Calculate the initial frequency of light emitted when an electron in a hydrogen atom transitions from an orbit of radius 5.3 × 10^-11 m with a velocity of 2.2 × 10^6 m/s.
6.6 × 10^15 Hz
4.7 × 10^15 Hz
5.3 × 10^15 Hz
7.1 × 10^15 Hz
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Using the classical electromagnetic theory, the frequency of the emitted light is equal to the frequency of the electron's revolution around the nucleus, which is calculated as 6.6 × 10^15 Hz using given values.
