The correct Answer is:
To find the centripetal acceleration of an electron in the first Bohr orbit, we can use the formula for centripetal acceleration, which is given by: \[ a_c = \frac{v^2}{r} \] Where: - \( a_c \) is the centripetal acceleration, - \( v \) is the velocity of the electron, - \( r \) is the radius of the first Bohr orbit. ### Step 1: Determine the radius of the first Bohr orbit The radius of the first Bohr orbit (n=1) is given by the formula: \[ r = \frac{n^2 h^2}{4 \pi^2 k m_e} \] Where: - \( n \) is the principal quantum number (for the first orbit, \( n=1 \)), - \( h \) is Planck's constant (\( 6.63 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{Js} \)), - \( k \) is Coulomb's constant (\( \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0} \)), - \( m_e \) is the mass of the electron (\( 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \, \text{kg} \)). For the first Bohr orbit, we can simplify the radius to: \[ r = 5.29 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{m} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the velocity of the electron in the first Bohr orbit The velocity of the electron in the first Bohr orbit can be calculated using the formula: \[ v = \frac{e^2}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 h} \] Where: - \( e \) is the charge of the electron (\( 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{C} \)), - \( \epsilon_0 \) is the permittivity of free space (\( 8.85 \times 10^{-12} \, \text{C}^2/\text{N m}^2 \)). Substituting the values, we find: \[ v \approx 2.18 \times 10^6 \, \text{m/s} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the centripetal acceleration Now we can substitute the values of \( v \) and \( r \) into the centripetal acceleration formula: \[ a_c = \frac{(2.18 \times 10^6)^2}{5.29 \times 10^{-11}} \] Calculating this gives: \[ a_c \approx 9 \times 10^{22} \, \text{m/s}^2 \] ### Conclusion Thus, the centripetal acceleration of the electron in the first Bohr orbit is approximately: \[ a_c \approx 9 \times 10^{22} \, \text{m/s}^2 \] ### Final Answer The correct option for this question will be option A: \( 9 \times 10^{22} \, \text{m/s}^2 \). ---
