The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( n \) such that the de-Broglie wavelength of an electron in the 3rd Bohr orbit is approximately \( n \pi x \), where \( x \) is the radius of the first Bohr orbit. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Radius of Bohr Orbits**: The radius of the \( n \)-th Bohr orbit is given by the formula: \[ r_n = n^2 r_1 \] where \( r_1 \) is the radius of the first orbit. Given that the radius of the first orbit is \( x \), we have: \[ r_1 = x \quad \text{and} \quad r_3 = 3^2 r_1 = 9x \] 2. **Using the de-Broglie Wavelength Formula**: The de-Broglie wavelength \( \lambda \) of an electron in the \( n \)-th orbit is given by: \[ \lambda = \frac{2 \pi r_n}{n} \] Substituting \( r_3 \) into the equation, we get: \[ \lambda_3 = \frac{2 \pi (9x)}{3} \] 3. **Calculating the Wavelength**: Simplifying the expression for \( \lambda_3 \): \[ \lambda_3 = \frac{18 \pi x}{3} = 6 \pi x \] 4. **Setting Up the Equation**: We need to find \( n \) such that: \[ \lambda_3 \approx n \pi x \] From our calculation, we have: \[ 6 \pi x = n \pi x \] 5. **Solving for \( n \)**: Dividing both sides by \( \pi x \) (assuming \( \pi x \neq 0 \)): \[ n = 6 \] ### Final Answer: Thus, the value of \( n \) is \( 6 \). ---
