The orbital angular momentum for an electron revolving in an orbit is given by `sqrt(l(l + 1))(h)/(2pi)`. What is the momentum of an s-electron?

A

`h//2 pi`

B

`sqrt(2) h// pi`

C

`+(1)/(2) h// 2pi`

D

zero.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Momentum for s-electron
`=sqrt(0(0+1)) , h//2pi =zero`.
