Question

How many waves are there in the How many waves are there in the sixth Bohr's orbit of hydrogen
Bohr's orbit of hydrogen

Answer 1

The number of waves are in the sixth Bohr's orbit of hydrogen is 6

Explanation:

The number of waves is given by the formula:

Number of waves = (Circumference)/(wavelength)

Number of waves = (2πr)/λ

Number of waves = (2πr)/(h/mv)

Number of waves = (2π)/h × mvr

Number of waves = (2π)/h × (nh)/(2π)

∴ Number of waves = n = 6 (in sixth Bohr's orbit of hydrogen)

Answer 2

Answer:

6

Explanation:

Let us write the basic formula for Number of waves = 2πr/w

Where w is the wavelength

Now according to De-Broglie concept;

w= h /mv

Number of waves= 2πr÷h /mv

Number of waves= 2π(mvr)/h

Number of waves=2π(nh÷2π)/h

Number of waves=2π x n x h x 1/2π x 1/h

Number of waves = n

If we are taking the 6th orbit of Bohr's model, then n = 6 and therefore number of waves would be 6
