(B) The energy of the hydrogen atom in the ground state $(n=1)$ is $E_1 = -13.6 \; eV$.When the atom absorbs a photon of energy $12.75 \; eV$,its new energy $E_n$ becomes:$E_n = E_1 + 12.75 = -13.6 + 12.75 = -0.85 \; eV$.Using the formula $E_n = \frac{-13.6}{n^2} \; eV$,we have:$\frac{-13.6}{n^2} = -0.85$$n^2 = \frac{13.6}{0.85} = 16$$n = 4$.The angular momentum $L$ of an electron in the $n$-th orbit is given by Bohr's postulate:$L = \frac{nh}{2\pi} = \frac{4h}{2\pi} = \frac{2h}{\pi}$.Substituting $h = 4.14 	imes 10^{-15} \; eVs$:$L = \frac{2 	imes 4.14 	imes 10^{-15}}{\pi} = \frac{8.28 	imes 10^{-15}}{\pi} = \frac{828 	imes 10^{-17}}{\pi} \; eVs$.Comparing this with $\frac{x}{\pi} 	imes 10^{-17} \; eVs$,we get $x = 828$.

In accordance with Bohr's model,find the quantum number that characterizes the Earth's revolution around the Sun in an orbit of radius $1.5 \times 10^{11} \; m$ with an orbital speed of $3 \times 10^{4} \; m/s$. (Mass of Earth $= 6.0 \times 10^{24} \; kg$)

Which of the following is a property of the Rydberg constant?

Assuming the atom is in the ground state, the expression for the magnetic field at the nucleus in a hydrogen atom due to the circular motion of the electron is [$\mu_0 =$ permeability of free space, $m =$ mass of electron, $\epsilon_0 =$ permittivity of free space, $h =$ Planck's constant].

If one takes into account the finite mass of the proton,then the correction to the binding energy of the hydrogen atom is approximately (take,mass of proton $= 1.60 \times 10^{-27} \, kg$ and mass of electron $= 9.10 \times 10^{-31} \, kg$) (in $\%$)
