In a hydrogen atom in its ground state,the first Bohr orbit has radius $r_1$. When the atom is raised to one of its excited states,the electron's orbital velocity becomes one-third of its initial value. The radius of that orbit is: (in $r_1$)

    $2$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $4$
  • D

Consider a hydrogen-like atom whose energy in the $n^{th}$ excited state is given by $E_n = - \frac{13.6 Z^2}{n^2}$. When this excited atom makes a transition from an excited state to the ground state, the most energetic photons have energy $E_{max} = 52.224 \ eV$ and the least energetic photons have energy $E_{min} = 1.224 \ eV$. The atomic number of the atom is:
