उत्तर
Given:
Mass of the hydrogen atom, M = 1.67 × 10−27 kg
Let v be the velocity with which hydrogen atom is moving before collision.
Let v1 and v2 be the velocities of hydrogen atoms after the collision.
Energy used for the ionisation of one atom of hydrogen, ΔE = 13.6 eV = 13.6×(1.6×10−19)J
Applying the conservation of momentum, we get
mv = mv1 + mυ2 ...(1)
Applying the conservation of mechanical energy, we get
`1/2 mv^2=1/2mv_1^2+ 1/2mv_2^2+DeltaE//m` .......(2)
Using equation (1), we get
`V^2 = (V_1 + V_2)^2`
`V^2 = v_1^2 +v_2^2 + 2v_1v_2` ...(3)
In equation(2), on multiplying both the sides by 2 and dividing both the sides by m.
`v^2 = v_1^2 + v_1^2+ 2Delta E//m .......(4)`
On comparing (4) and (3), we get
`[therefore 2v_1v_2 = (2DeltaE)/m]`
`(U_1 - U_2)^2 = (U_1 + U_2)^2 -4U_1U_2`
`(v_1 - v_2)^2 = v^2 - (4DeltaE)/m`
For minimum value of υ,
`V_1 = V_2 = 0 `
`Also, V^2 - (4Delta)/m`
`∴ v^2 = (4DeltaE)/m`
= `(4xx13.6xx1.6xx10^-19)/(1.67xx10^-27)`
`v =sqrt(4xx13.6xx1.6xx10^-19)/(1.67xx10^-27)`
= `10^4 sqrt((4xx13.6xx1.6)/(1.67))`
= 7.2 × 104 m/s

Classically, an electron can be in any orbit around the nucleus of an atom. Then what determines the typical atomic size? Why is an atom not, say, a thousand times bigger than its typical size? The question had greatly puzzled Bohr before he arrived at his famous model of the atom that you have learnt in the text. To simulate what he might well have done before his discovery, let us play as follows with the basic constants of nature and see if we can get a quantity with the dimensions of length that is roughly equal to the known size of an atom (~ 10−10 m).
(a) Construct a quantity with the dimensions of length from the fundamental constants e, me, and c. Determine its numerical value.
(b) You will find that the length obtained in (a) is many orders of magnitude smaller than the atomic dimensions. Further, it involves c. But energies of atoms are mostly in non-relativistic domain where c is not expected to play any role. This is what may have suggested Bohr to discard c and look for ‘something else’ to get the right atomic size. Now, the Planck’s constant h had already made its appearance elsewhere. Bohr’s great insight lay in recognising that h, me, and e will yield the right atomic size. Construct a quantity with the dimension of length from h, me, and e and confirm that its numerical value has indeed the correct order of magnitude.
