In Bohr's atomic model of hydrogen, let K , P and E are the kinetic energy, potential energy and total energy of the electron respectively. Choose the correct option when the electron undergoes transitions to a higher level :

Step-by-step solution

Total energy of electron is stated as E = - Z 2 m e 4 8 n h ε 0 2 , potential energy P = - Z 2 m e 4 4 n h ε 0 2 and kinetic energy is given by K = Z 2 m e 4 8 n h ε 0 2 . So, as electron makes transition to higher level, total energy and potential energy increases due to the negative sign while the kinetic energy of electron decreases.
