उत्तर
10−42 N-m
The angular momentum of the electron for the nth state is given by
`L_n = (nh)/(2pi)`
Angular momentum of the electron for n = 3,
n = 3 , `L_i = (3h)/(2pi)`
Angular momentum of the electron for n = 2, `L_f= (2h)/(2pi)`
The torque is the time rate of change of the angular momentum.
Torque `tau = (L_f - L_i)/t`
= `((2h//2pi)-(3h//2pi))/10^-8`
= `-(h//2pi)/((10^-8)`
= `(-10^-34)/10^-8 ..............[∴ h/(2pi) ≈ 10^-34 J -s ]`
= -10-42 N - m
The magnitude of the torque is `10^-42 N.m`
