Physics-Bohr Model
NEET Physics Bohr Model MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-diagram based-Hard-Class 12
Consider a diagram of an electron in a hydrogen atom orbiting a proton in a circular path. If the orbit corresponds to a standing wave with a circumference of four wavelengths, how is the electron's angular momentum quantized?
A
nh/2π, where n is an integer
B
n^2h/4π, where n is an integer
C
nh, where n is an integer
D
2nh/π, where n is an integer
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The quantum condition for angular momentum in Bohr's model is m v_n r_n = nh/2π, as supported by the de Broglie hypothesis and standing wave condition.
