The de-Broglie wavelength of an electron...

The de-Broglie wavelength of an electron in the first Bohr orbit is

A

equal to one- fourth the circumference of the first orbit

B

equal to half the circumference of first orbit

C

equal to twice the circumference of first orbit.

D

equal to the circumference of the first orbit.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Angular momentum `=(nh)/(2pi)`
`rArr` moment of momentum `=pxxr_n`
`rArrpxxr_n=(nh)/(2pi)rArrr(h)/(lambda)r_nrArrlambda =(2pir_n)/(n)`
For `1^st` orbit, `n=1,lambda =2pir_1`
`rArr =` circumference of `1^st` orbit.
