NEET Physics Bohr Model MCQ Question
What is the initial frequency of light emitted by an electron in a hydrogen atom moving in an orbit with a radius of 5.3 × 10^-11 m, according to the classical electromagnetic theory?
6.6 × 10^15 Hz
2 × 10^6 Hz
5.3 × 10^-11 Hz
3 × 10^15 Hz
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the classical electromagnetic theory, the frequency of light emitted is equal to the frequency of electron's revolution around the nucleus, which is calculated as 6.6 × 10^15 Hz based on the given velocity and orbit radius.
