Multiple choice limitations of bohr model and explanation of bohr's second postulate by matter waves bohr's model atoms atomic nuclei physics

If the radius of first Bohrs orbit is $x$, then de-Broglie wavelength of electron in 3rd orbit is nearly

  1. $2\pi$ $x$

  2. $6\pi$$x$

  3. $9x$

  4. $x/3$

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Radius of 3rd orbit radius $=9x=n^{2}x$ (where $n=3$ )
Let de broglie wavelength be $\lambda $.
For the interference of the waves to be constructive,
$n\lambda =2\pi r$ ($r$ is radius of orbit)
$\Rightarrow \lambda =\dfrac{2\pi \times 9x}{3} $ (where, $\ n=3 $, the quantum state)
$\Rightarrow \lambda =6\pi x$

The circumference of the second orbit of an atom or ion having single electron ,is $4 \times10^{-9}$ m.The de-Brogile wavelength of electron revolving in this orbit should be

  1. $2\times 10^{-9}m$

  2. $4\times 10^{-9}m$

  3. $8\times 10^{-9}m$

  4. $1\times 10^{-9}m$

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The circumference of the orbit $=4\times 10^{9}m$
The orbit number $=2$

$n\lambda =2\pi r$

$\Rightarrow \lambda =\dfrac{4\times 10^{9}}{2}m$

$\Rightarrow \lambda =2\times 10^{-9}m$

If the electron in hydrogen orbit jumps from third orbit to second orbit, the wavelength of the emitted radiation is given by

  1. $\lambda = \dfrac {R}{6}$

  2. $\lambda = \dfrac {5}{R}$

  3. $\lambda = \dfrac {36}{5R}$

  4. $\lambda = \dfrac {5R}{36}$

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

We know that
$\dfrac {1}{\lambda} = R \left (\dfrac {1}{n _{1}^{2}} - \dfrac {1}{n _{2}^{2}} \right )$
$\dfrac {1}{\lambda} = R\left (\dfrac {1}{2^{2}} - \dfrac {1}{3^{2}} \right ) \Rightarrow R \left (\dfrac {1}{4} - \dfrac {1}{9}\right )$
$\dfrac {1}{\lambda} = \left (\dfrac {9 - 4}{36}\right ) R = \dfrac {5R}{36} \Rightarrow \lambda = \dfrac {36}{5R}$

According to de-Broglie explanation of Bohr's second postulate of quantization, the standing particle wave on a circular orbit for $n = 4$ is given by

  1. $2 \pi {r} _{n} = {4}/{\lambda}$

  2. $\dfrac{2 \pi}{\lambda} = 4{r} _{n}$

  3. $2 \pi {r} _{n} = 4 \lambda$

  4. $\dfrac{\lambda}{2 \pi} = 4 {r} _{n}$

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

According to debroglie explanation of Bohr's second postulate, assumption is made that integral number of wavelengths must fir in the circumference of circular orbit. The integral multiple comes out to be the same as quantization number.

$2 \pi r _n = n \lambda$
For $n=4$, 
       $2 \pi r _n = 4 \lambda$

Multiple choice intrinsic and extrinsic semiconductors types of semiconductors electronic devices semiconductor electronics: materials, devices and simple circuits physics

Choose the wrong statement

  1. p-type semi conductor is positively charged

  2. n-type semi conductor is negatively charged

  3. both p-type and n-type are electrically neutral

  4. none of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

p and n type materials are NOT positively and negatively charged. An n-type material by itself has mainly negative charge carriers (electrons) which are able to move freely, but it is still neutral because the fixed donor atoms, having donated electrons, are positive

In N -- type semi  - conductor current is due to

  1. Electrons

  2. Holes

  3. Electrons and holes

  4. none of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

In N-type semi-conductor majority carriers are electrons. So, when the voltage is applied across the semi-conductor electrons started to drift from negative to positive terminal as result current starts to flow in opposite direction of electrons.

Hence in N- type semi-conductor current is due to electrons.

Fermi level of energy of an intrinsic semiconductor lies

  1. in the middle of the forbidden gap.

  2. below the middle of forbidden gap.

  3. above the middle of forbidden gap.

  4. outside the forbidden gap.

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Fermi energy is determined as the energy point where the probability of occupancy by an electron is exactly $50\ %$ or $0.5$, i.e., $\dfrac{1}{2}$. For the intrinsic semiconductor, since electrons and holes are always created in pairs, $n = p = ni$. Hence, there are equal number of holes and electrons in valence band and conduction band respectively. Therefore, the Fermi energy level lies in the middle of the forbidden gap, i.e., energy band gap.
