NEET 2019 Odisha · PhysicsOrbit radiusPrevious Year Question

The radius of the first permitted Bohr orbit for the electron in a hydrogen atom is 0.51 Å and its ground state energy is –13.6 eV. If the electron in hydrogen is replaced by a muon (μ⁻) [charge same as electron, mass 207 mₑ], the first Bohr radius and ground state energy will be:

Answer: (C) 2.56 × 10⁻¹³ m, –2.8 keV. Answer: (c) 2.56 × 10⁻¹³ m, –2.8 keV Solution: Bohr radius r ∝ 1/m and energy E ∝ m (at fixed Z).

  1. A.0.53 × 10⁻¹³ m, –3.6 eV
  2. B.25.6 × 10⁻¹³ m, –2.8 eV
  3. C.2.56 × 10⁻¹³ m, –2.8 keV
  4. D.2.56 × 10⁻¹³ m, –13.6 eV

Correct Answer

(C) 2.56 × 10⁻¹³ m, –2.8 keV

Solution & Explanation

Answer: (c) 2.56 × 10⁻¹³ m, –2.8 keV Solution: Bohr radius r ∝ 1/m and energy E ∝ m (at fixed Z). Replacing the electron by a muon of mass 207mₑ: r_μ = r_e/207 = 0.51 Å/207 = 0.51×10⁻¹⁰/207 = 2.46×10⁻¹³ m ≈ 2.56×10⁻¹³ m. E_μ = 207 × (−13.6 eV) = −2815 eV ≈ −2.8 keV.

PhysIn the first excited state of hydrogen atom, the energy of its electron is –3.4 eV. The radial distance of the electron from the hydrogen nucleus in this case is approximately: (Take 1 eV = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ J, e = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C and 1/(4πε₀) = 9 × 10⁹ N m²/C²)PhysThe radius of innermost orbit of hydrogen atom is 5.3 × 10⁻¹¹ m. What is the radius of the third allowed orbit of hydrogen atom?PhysAn electric dipole with dipole moment 5 × 10⁻⁶ C·m is aligned with the direction of a uniform electric field of magnitude 4 × 10⁵ N/C. The dipole is then rotated through an angle of 60° with respect to the electric field. The change in the potential energy of the dipole is:PhysTwo identical charged conducting spheres A and B have their centres separated by a certain distance. Charge on each sphere is q and the force of repulsion between them is F. A third identical uncharged conducting sphere is brought in contact with sphere A first and then with B and finally removed from both. New force of repulsion between spheres A and B (radii negligible vs separation, treated as point charges) is best given as:PhysThe plates of a parallel plate capacitor are separated by d. Two slabs of different dielectric constant K1 and K2 with thickness 3d/8 and d/2 respectively are inserted in the capacitor. Due to this, the capacitance becomes two times larger than when there is nothing between the plates. If K1/K2 = 1.25, the value of K1 is:PhysA sphere of radius R is carved out of a uniform solid sphere of radius 2R (internally tangent, so its centre is at distance R from the big centre). The ratio of the moment of inertia of the small sphere to that of the remaining part, both about the Y-axis through the big sphere's centre, is:PhysThe Sun rotates once in 27 days. If it expanded to twice its present radius (uniform-density sphere, no external influence), its new period would be about:PhysA uniform rod of mass 20 kg and length 5 m leans against a smooth vertical wall, making 60° with the wall; its lower end rests on a rough horizontal floor. The friction force exerted by the floor is: (g = 10 m/s²)
