Derive an expression for the radius of `n^(th)` Bohr’s orbit in Hydrogen atom.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To derive the expression for the radius of the \( n^{th} \) Bohr orbit in a hydrogen atom, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Forces Acting on the Electron In a hydrogen atom, an electron revolves around a nucleus (proton) due to the electrostatic force of attraction. The forces acting on the electron are: - **Electrostatic Force (F_e)**: This is the force of attraction between the positively charged nucleus and the negatively charged electron. - **Centrifugal Force (F_c)**: This is the apparent force that acts outward on the electron when it is in circular motion. ### Step 2: Write the Expression for Electrostatic Force ...
