The electron in the hydrogen atom is moving with a speed of 2 . 3 × 10 6 m s - 1 in an orbit of 0 . 53 A 0 . Calculate the period of revolution of electron. π = 3 . 142

Given : Speed of the electron in the hydrogen atom, v = 2 . 3 × 10 6 m s - 1 . The radius of the orbit, r = 0 . 53 A 0 = 0 . 53 × 10 - 10 m . The period of revolution of the electron, T = 2 π r v = 2 × 3 . 142 × 0 . 53 × 10 - 10 2 . 3 × 10 6 = 1 . 44 × 10 - 16 s .

Match the correct answer: a. Amplitude (i) shallow sound b. Lion's roar (ii) number of vibrations per second c. Frequency (iii) maximum displacement d. Chirping of birds (iv) shrill sound

a. Amplitude- (iii) maximum displacement The amplitude of a sound wave is the maximum displacement from the mean position. It is the displacement from the mean position to the extreme position. b. Lion's roar- (i) shallow sound Lion's roar is a shallow sound. The shallow sound is a low pitch sound. c. Frequency- (ii) number of vibrations per second Frequency is the number of vibrations per second. It is the reciprocal of the time period, its unit is Hertz. d. Chirping of birds- (iv) shrill sound The chirping of birds is a shrill sound. The shrill sound is a high pitch sound. a. Amplitude (iii) maximum displacement b. Lion's roar (i) shallow sound c. Frequency (ii) number of vibrations per second d. Chirping of birds (iv) shrill sound
