The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( x \) such that the product of linear momentum \( P \) and angular momentum \( L \) in a hydrogen atom is proportional to \( n^x \), where \( n \) is the orbit number. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Linear Momentum**: - The linear momentum \( P \) of an electron in orbit is given by: \[ P = mv \] - Here, \( m \) is the mass of the electron and \( v \) is its velocity. 2. **Velocity and Orbit Number**: - According to Bohr's model, the velocity \( v \) of the electron is inversely proportional to the orbit number \( n \): \[ v \propto \frac{1}{n} \] - Therefore, we can express the linear momentum as: \[ P \propto m \cdot v \propto m \cdot \frac{1}{n} \] - This implies: \[ P \propto \frac{1}{n} \] 3. **Understanding Angular Momentum**: - The angular momentum \( L \) is given by: \[ L = mvr \] - According to Bohr's postulate, the angular momentum is quantized and given by: \[ L = \frac{nh}{2\pi} \] - This shows that: \[ L \propto n \] 4. **Product of Linear and Angular Momentum**: - Now, we need to find the product \( P \cdot L \): \[ P \cdot L \propto \left(\frac{1}{n}\right) \cdot n \] - Simplifying this gives: \[ P \cdot L \propto 1 \] 5. **Expressing in Terms of \( n^x \)**: - Since \( P \cdot L \) is proportional to a constant (which can be written as \( n^0 \)), we can write: \[ P \cdot L \propto n^0 \] - Therefore, we can conclude that: \[ x = 0 \] ### Final Answer: The value of \( x \) is \( 0 \). ---
