The electric potential between a proton ...

The electric potential between a proton and an electron is given by ` V= V_(0) In((r)/(r_(0)))` where `r_(0)` is a constant. Assume that Bohr atom model is applicable to potential, then variation of radius of `n^(th)` orbit `r_(n)` with the principal quantum number n is

A

`r infty (1)/(n)`

B

`r_(n) infty n`

C

`r_(n) infty (1)/(n^(2))`

D

`r_(n) infty n^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Electric potential between proton and electron in `n^(th)` orbit is given as,
`V = V_(0) In(((r_(n))/(r_(0)))`
Thus the coulomb force `|F_(e)| = e((dv)/(dr)) = e(((V_(0))/(r_(n)))` This coulomb force is balance by the centripetal force
`(mv^(2))/(r_(n)) = e ((V_(0))/(r_(n))) Rightarrow V = sqrt((eV_(0))/(m))`
Now from
`mvr_(n) = (nh)/(2pi)`
`r_(n) infty n`
