What will be the number of waves formed by a Bohr electron in one complete revolution in its second orbit?
Options
Athree
BTwo
COne
DZero
Correct answer
B. Two
Step-by-step solution
Number of waves = de − Broglie wavelength of electron Circumeference of orbit
But,
λ=mvh
So,
λ=h2πr×μ=n2π×mvr
but
mvrmvr=2πnh=h2π×2πnh=n
For second orbit, n=2∴ Number of waves =2
