Answer to Question #152270 in Electricity and Magnetism for Ketan Sharma

Question

Assume there is one electron charge -e inside a spherical region of the uniform charge density p (a Thompson hydrogen model)if the sphere of the radius is given is the 1* 10-10 find the frequency of the radiation emitted by the atom

Answer 1

Answer

This is similiar as Bohr model energy is given by

$E=\frac{-13.6eV}{n^2}$

the frequency of the radiation emitted by the atom

$\nu=\frac{E}{h}$

Using above both equation

$\nu=\frac{E}{h}=\frac{13.6\times1.6\times10^{-19}}{6.6\times10^{-34}}\\=3.3\times10^{15}Hz$
