Physics-Bohr Model
NEET Physics Bohr Model MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12
Which of the following statements about the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom is correct?
A
The angular momentum of the electron in a stable orbit is quantized.
B
Electrons emit radiation continuously while in orbit around the nucleus.
C
The speed of the electron in a given orbit is constant regardless of the orbit.
D
Electrons can occupy any orbit without restrictions in energy levels.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The Bohr model posits that the angular momentum of the electron is quantized, following the condition m v_n r_n = nh/2π, which explains the discrete orbits of the electron in the hydrogen atom.
