The momentum of an electron revolving in n t h orbit is given by : (Symbols have their usual meanings)
Options
- An h 2 π r
- Bn h 2 r
- Cn h 2 π
- D2 π r n h
Correct answer
A. n h 2 π r
Step-by-step solution
According to Bohr's postulates, angular momentum of an electron in an orbit is given by, L = m v r = n h 2 π Therefore, linear momentum p = L r = n h 2 π r
