From a carbon nanotube of $1 \,\mu m$ length and $1 \,nm$ radius,$10$ electrons have been removed. Assume the resulting positive charge to be distributed uniformly over the surface of the tube. The energy of an electron moving in a stable circular orbit around the axis along the length of the tube is calculated by applying the Bohr model. Accordingly,the frequency of radiation required to excite an electron from its ground state to the next level is in the range of (charge of the electron,$e = 1.60 \times 10^{-19} \,C$; mass of the electron,$m_e = 9.11 \times 10^{-31} \,kg$; Planck's constant,$h = 6.63 \times 10^{-34} \,Js$; Permittivity of free space,$\varepsilon_0 = 8.85 \times 10^{-12} \,F/m$)

$A$ free hydrogen atom after absorbing a photon of wavelength $\lambda_{a}$ gets excited from the state $n=1$ to the state $n=4$. Immediately after that,the electron jumps to $n=m$ state by emitting a photon of wavelength $\lambda_{e}$. Let the change in momentum of the atom due to the absorption and the emission be $\Delta p_{a}$ and $\Delta p_{e}$,respectively. If $\lambda_{a} / \lambda_{e} = 1/5$,which of the following options is/are correct?
[Use $hc = 1242 \text{ eV nm}$; $1 \text{ nm} = 10^{-9} \text{ m}$,$h$ and $c$ are Planck's constant and speed of light,respectively]
$(1)$ $\lambda_{e} = 418 \text{ nm}$
$(2)$ The ratio of kinetic energy of the electron in the state $n=m$ to the state $n=1$ is $1/4$
$(3)$ $m=2$
$(4)$ $\Delta p_{a} / \Delta p_{e} = 1/2$

Give the relationship between orbital radius and velocity of an electron for a hydrogen atom.

The radius of the $2^{nd}$ orbit of $He^{+}$ in Bohr's model is $r_1$ and that of the fourth orbit of $Be^{3+}$ is represented as $r_2$. If the ratio $\frac{r_2}{r_1}$ is $x : 1$,then the value of $x$ is .........

Using Bohr's atomic model,derive an equation for the radius of the $n^{th}$ orbit of an electron.

When a hydrogen atom,initially at rest,emits a photon resulting in a transition $n = 5 \rightarrow n = 1$,its recoil speed is about
