In a hydrogen atom, the electron makes $6.6 \times 10^{15}$ revolutions per second around the nucleus in an orbit of radius $0.5 \times 10^{-10} \, m$. This is equivalent to a current of nearly:

  • A
    $1 \, A$
  • B
    $1 \, mA$
  • C
    $1 \, \mu A$
  • D
    $1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, A$

An electron in a hydrogen atom first jumps from the second excited state to the first excited state and then from the first excited state to the ground state. Let the ratio of wavelength,momentum,and energy of the photons in the two cases be $x, y,$ and $z$ respectively. Select the wrong answer$(s)$:

The magnetic moment of an electron due to its orbital motion is proportional to $(n =$ principal quantum number$)$

Would the Bohr formula for the $H-$ atom remain unchanged if the proton had a charge of $+ \frac{4e}{3}$ and the electron a charge of $- \frac{3e}{4}$ (where $e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$)? Give reasons for your answer.

According to de-Broglie,the de-Broglie wavelength for an electron in an orbit of radius $5.3 \times 10^{-11} \ m$ of a hydrogen atom is $10^{-10} \ m$. The principal quantum number for this electron is:

Considering the Bohr model of hydrogen-like atoms,the ratio of the radius of the $5^{\text{th}}$ orbit of the electron in $Li^{2+}$ to that in $He^{+}$ is:
