$A$ hydrogen-like atom of atomic number $Z$ is in an excited state of quantum number $2n$. It can emit a maximum energy photon of $204 \ eV$. If it makes a transition to quantum state $n$,a photon of energy $40.8 \ eV$ is emitted. The value of $n$ will be

The figure shows a graph between $\ln \left| \frac{A_n}{A_1} \right|$ and $\ln |n|$, where $A_n$ is the area enclosed by the $n^{th}$ orbit in a hydrogen-like atom. The correct curve is

If the electronic charge on an electron alone is doubled, then as per the Bohr model, the $K.E.$ of an $e^-$ revolving in the $n^{th}$ orbit becomes:

The inverse square law in electrostatics is $|\vec F| = \frac{{{e^2}}}{{4\pi { \in _0}{r^2}}}$ for the force between an electron and a proton. The $\frac{1}{r^2}$ dependence of $|\vec F|$ can be understood in quantum theory as being due to the fact that the particle of light (photon) is massless. If photons had a mass $m_p$,the force would be modified to $|\vec F| = \frac{{{e^2}}}{{4\pi { \in _0}}}\left( {\frac{1}{{{r^2}}} + \frac{\lambda }{r}} \right)\left( {{e^{ - \lambda r}}} \right)$ where $\lambda = \frac{{{m_p}c}}{\hbar }$ and $\hbar = \frac{h}{{2\pi }}$. Estimate the change in the ground state energy of a $H$-atom if $m_p$ were $10^{-6}$ times the mass of an electron.
