$A$ moving Hydrogen atom makes a head-on collision with a stationary Hydrogen atom. Before the collision,both atoms are in the ground state,and after the collision,they move together. The minimum kinetic energy of the moving Hydrogen atom,such that one of the atoms reaches the excitation state,is (in $eV$)

  • A
    $13.6$
  • B
    $30.6$
  • C

Imagine that the electron in a hydrogen atom is replaced by a muon $(\mu)$. The mass of the muon particle is $207$ times that of an electron and its charge is equal to the charge of an electron. The ionization potential of this hydrogen atom will be ............. $eV$.

The magnitude of acceleration of the electron in the $n$th orbit of a hydrogen atom is $a_{H}$ and that of a singly ionised helium atom is $a_{He}$. The ratio of $a_{H} : a_{He}$ is

$A$ proton is fired from a very large distance towards a nucleus with charge $Q = 120e$,where $e$ is the elementary charge. It reaches a distance of closest approach of $10 \ fm$. The de Broglie wavelength of the proton at its initial position is (in $fm$). (Given: mass of proton $m_p = (5/3) \times 10^{-27} \ kg$; $h/e = 4.2 \times 10^{-15} \ J \cdot s/C$; $\frac{1}{4\pi \varepsilon_0} = 9 \times 10^9 \ N \cdot m^2/C^2$; $1 \ fm = 10^{-15} \ m$)

Speed of electron in its $1^{st}$ Bohr's orbit is given by $2.18 \times 10^6 \ m/s$. If the time period of electron in $n^{th}$ orbit is measured as $4.10 \ fs$,the value of $n$ is
