A hydrogen atom, initially in the ground state, is excited by absorbing a photon of wavelength $980 \ \text{\AA}$. The radius of the atom in the excited state, in terms of Bohr radius $a_0$, will be (given $hc = 12500 \ \text{eV-\AA}$). (in $a_0$)

For a certain hypothetical one-electron atom,the wavelength (in $\mathring{A}$) for the spectral lines for transition from $n = p$ to $n = 1$ is given by $\lambda = \frac{1500p^2}{p^2 - 1}$ (where $p > 1$). The ionization potential of this element must be .....$V$ (Take $hc = 12420\ eV\cdot\mathring{A}$).

In a hydrogen atom,an electron excites from the ground state to a higher energy state,and its orbital velocity is reduced to $\frac{1}{3}$ of its initial value. The radius of the orbit in the ground state is $R$. The radius of the orbit in that higher energy state is: (in $R$)

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

In the Bohr's hydrogen atom model,the radius of the stationary orbit is directly proportional to ($n =$ principle quantum number)
