Question

Bohrs atomic model assumes :
  1. the nucleus is of infinite mass and is at rest
  2. electron in a quantized orbit will not radiate energy
  3. mass of the electron remains constant
  4. all of the above

A
electron in a quantized orbit will not radiate energy
B
all of the above
C
the nucleus is of infinite mass and is at rest
D
mass of the electron remains constant
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Bohr's Assumption :
( i ) Electron in atoms orbit the nucleus.
( ii ) Electron in a quantized orbit will not radiate energy.
( iii ) Electrons can only gain and lose energy by jumping from one allowed orbit to other.
He also assumed one of the postulates of Rutherford's atomic model, that is, the mass of the nucleus is very large compared to that of the electrons and hence assumed to be infinite

Q2

The Bohr atom, in structure, is not very different from the Rutherford atom - you have an electron going around the nucleus in a circular orbit. So even in the Bohr model, the electron must experience some centripetal acceleration. Why is there no radiation in that case, like in the Rutherford's model?

Q3

A particle of charge equal to that of an electron, -e and mass 208 times of the mass of the electron (called a mu-meson) moves in a circular orbit around a nucleus of charge +3e. (Take the mass of the nucleus to be infinite). Assume that the Bohr model of the atom is applicable to this system. If the value of n for which the radius of the orbit is approximately the same as that of the first Bohr orbit for the hydrogen atom, then the value of n4 rounded off to nearest integer is
