Question
Using Bohr model, calculate the electric current created by the electron when the H-atom is in the ground state.

Solution
The equivalent electric current due to rotation of charge is given by `i = Q/T = Q(1/T) = Q xx f`, where `f` is the frequency.
In a Hydrogen atom, an electron in the ground state revolves in a circular orbit whose radius is equal to the Bohr radius (a0). Let the velocity of the electron is v.
∴ Number of revolutions per unit time `f = (2πa_0)/v`
The electric current is given by i = Q of, if Q charge flows in time T. Here, Q = e.
The electric current is given by `i = e((2πa_0)/v) = (2πa_0)/v e`.

The inverse square law in electrostatics is |F| = `e^2/((4πε_0).r^2)` for the force between an electron and a proton. The `(1/r)` dependence of |F| can be understood in quantum theory as being due to the fact that the ‘particle’ of light (photon) is massless. If photons had a mass mp, force would be modified to |F| = `e^2/((4πε_0)r^2) [1/r^2 + λ/r]`, exp (– λr) where λ = mpc/h and h = `h/(2π)`.
