Speed of an electron in Bohr’s 7th orbit for Hydrogen atom is 3.6 × 106 m s-1. The corresponding speed of the electron in 3rd orbit, in m s-1 is :
  1. 1.8×106
  2. 7.5×106
  3. 3.6×106
  4. 8.4×106

Solution

For hydrogen like atom, the velocity of electron in nth orbit is given by

v=z2e22ε0hn

v1n

v1v2=n2n1

3.6×106v2=37

v2=8.4×106 m s-1
