NEET Physics Bohr Model MCQ Question
In the diagram shown above, an electron transitions from an energy level n_i to n_f, resulting in the emission of a photon. Which of the following is true about the energies E_ni and E_nf of these levels?

E_ni is greater than E_nf
E_ni is less than E_nf
E_ni equals E_nf
E_ni is unrelated to E_nf
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to Bohr's model, when an electron transitions to a lower energy level, a photon is emitted, meaning E_ni is greater than E_nf.
