Using Bohr’s postulates, derive the expression for the frequency of radiation emitted when electron in hydrogen atom undergoes transition from higher energy state (quantum number n_i) to the lower state, (n_f).

When electron in hydrogen atom jumps from energy state n_i = 4 to n_f = 3, 2, 1, identify the spectral series to which the emission lines belong.

The electron in hydrogen atom is initially in the third excited state. What is the maximum number of spectral lines which can be emitted when it finally moves to the ground state?

Using Bohr’s postulates for hydrogen atom, show that the total energy (E) of the electron in the stationary states tan be expressed as the sum of kinetic energy (K) and potential energy (U), where K = −2U. Hence deduce the expression for the total energy in the n^th energy level of hydrogen atom.

A long straight wire of a circular cross-section of radius ‘a’ carries a steady current ‘I’. The current is uniformly distributed across the cross-section. Apply Ampere’s circuital law to calculate the magnetic field at a point ‘r’ in the region for (i) r < a and (ii) r > a.

What is meant by term ‘modulation’? Draw a block diagram of a simple modulator for obtaining an AM signal.

Why is frequency modulation preferred over amplitude modulation for transmission of music?

Two sources are called coherent if they produce waves ______________ .

Two coherent point sources S₁ and S_2, vibrating in phase, emit light of wavelength \[\lambda.\] The separation between the sources is \[2\lambda.\] Consider a line passing through S₂ and perpendicular to the line S₁ S₂. What is the smallest distance from S₂ where a minimum intensity occurs?

In Ampere's  \[\oint \vec{B}  \cdot d \vec{l}  =  \mu_0 i,\] the current outside the curve is not included on the right hand side. Does it mean  that the magnetic field B calculated by using Ampere's law, gives the contribution of only the currents crossing the area bounded by the curve?
