प्रश्न
Find the maximum angular speed of the electron of a hydrogen atom in a stationary orbit.
उत्तर
Let the mass of the electron be m.
Let the radius of the hydrogen's first stationary orbit be r.
Let the linear speed and the angular speed of the electron be v and ω, respectively.
According to the Bohr's theory, angular momentum (L) of the electron is an integral multiple of h/2 `pi`, where h is the Planck's constant.
`rArr mvr= (nh)/(2pi)` (Here , n is an integer)
V = rω
`⇒ mr^2 omega = (nh)/(2pi)`
`⇒ omega = (nh)/(2pixxmxxr^2)`
`therefore omega = (1xx(6.63xx10^34))/(2xx(3.14)xx(9.1093xx10^-31)xx(0.53xx10^-10)^2`
`= 0.413 xx 10^17 (rad)//s = 4.13 xx 10^16 (rad)//s`

Classically, an electron can be in any orbit around the nucleus of an atom. Then what determines the typical atomic size? Why is an atom not, say, a thousand times bigger than its typical size? The question had greatly puzzled Bohr before he arrived at his famous model of the atom that you have learnt in the text. To simulate what he might well have done before his discovery, let us play as follows with the basic constants of nature and see if we can get a quantity with the dimensions of length that is roughly equal to the known size of an atom (~ 10−10 m).
(a) Construct a quantity with the dimensions of length from the fundamental constants e, me, and c. Determine its numerical value.
(b) You will find that the length obtained in (a) is many orders of magnitude smaller than the atomic dimensions. Further, it involves c. But energies of atoms are mostly in non-relativistic domain where c is not expected to play any role. This is what may have suggested Bohr to discard c and look for ‘something else’ to get the right atomic size. Now, the Planck’s constant h had already made its appearance elsewhere. Bohr’s great insight lay in recognising that h, me, and e will yield the right atomic size. Construct a quantity with the dimension of length from h, me, and e and confirm that its numerical value has indeed the correct order of magnitude.
If Bohr’s quantisation postulate (angular momentum = nh/2π) is a basic law of nature, it should be equally valid for the case of planetary motion also. Why then do we never speak of quantisation of orbits of planets around the sun?

Find the temperature at which the average thermal kinetic energy is equal to the energy needed to take a hydrogen atom from its ground state to n = 3 state.

When a photon is emitted from an atom, the atom recoils. The kinetic energy of recoil and the energy of the photon come from the difference in energies between the states involved in the transition. Suppose, a hydrogen atom changes its state from n = 3 to n = 2. Calculate the fractional change in the wavelength of light emitted, due to the recoil.

- as a sequence of frequencies with the higher frequencies getting closely packed.
