NEET Physics Bohr Model MCQ Question
Consider a diagram of an electron orbiting a nucleus in a circular path as per the Bohr model. If the circumference of the orbit is shown equal to a whole number of wavelengths, what fundamental concept does this illustrate?
Wave-particle duality of electrons
Quantization of angular momentum
Electron energy level transitions
Electrostatic attraction in atoms
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
This illustrates de Broglie's hypothesis, which explains Bohr's quantized orbits by introducing wave-particle duality, where the orbit circumference is a whole number of wavelengths.
