In an atom, two electrons revolve around the nucleus in circular orbits of radii r and 4r. The ratio of the time taken by them (T 2   :   T 1 ) to complete one revolution is
Options
- A1:4
- B4:1
- C1:8
- D8:1
Correct answer
C. 1:8
Step-by-step solution
r n = n 2 × η r 2 = 4 η T n = n 3 Z 2 × 1.5 × 1 0 - 16 s e c T 1 = 1 3 1 2 × 1.5 × 1 0 - 16 s e c T 2 = 2 3 1 2 × 1.5 × 1 0 - 16 s e c On dividing T 2 by T 1 we get T 2 T 1 = 8 1 or T 1 T 2 = 1 8
