In Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom,let $PE$ represent potential energy and $TE$ represent total energy. When an electron transitions to a higher energy level,

The radius of the orbit of an electron in a hydrogen atom is $0.5 \ \mathring{A}$. The speed of the electron is $2 \times 10^6 \ m/s$. The current in the loop due to the motion of the electron is ............. $mA$.

Classically,an electron can be in any orbit around the nucleus of an atom. Then what determines the typical atomic size? Why is an atom not,say,thousand times bigger than its typical size? The question had greatly puzzled Bohr before he arrived at his famous model of the atom that you have learnt in the text. To simulate what he might well have done before his discovery,let us play as follows with the basic constants of nature and see if we can get a quantity with the dimensions of length that is roughly equal to the known size of an atom $\left(\sim 10^{-10} \;m \right)$.
$(a)$ Construct a quantity with the dimensions of length from the fundamental constants $e, m_{e},$ and $c$. Determine its numerical value.
$(b)$ You will find that the length obtained in $(a)$ is many orders of magnitude smaller than the atomic dimensions. Further,it involves $c$. But energies of atoms are mostly in non-relativistic domain where $c$ is not expected to play any role. This is what may have suggested Bohr to discard $c$ and look for 'something else' to get the right atomic size. Now,the Planck's constant $h$ had already made its appearance elsewhere. Bohr's great insight lay in recognising that $h, m_{e},$ and $e$ will yield the right atomic size. Construct a quantity with the dimension of length from $h, m_{e},$ and $e$ and confirm that its numerical value has indeed the correct order of magnitude.

$A$ particle of mass $m$ moves in a circular orbit in a central potential field $U(r) = \frac{1}{2}kr^2$. If Bohr's quantization conditions are applied,radii of possible orbits and energy levels vary with quantum number $n$ as

The ground state energy of a hydrogen atom is $-13.6 \text{ eV}$. The potential energy of the electron in this state is: (in $\text{ eV}$)

Obtain the first Bohr's radius and the ground state energy of a muonic hydrogen atom [i.e.,an atom in which a negatively charged muon $(\mu^-)$ of mass about $207 m_{e}$ orbits around a proton].
