Give de-Broglie's explanationof Bohr's second postulate.

Answer»

SOLUTION :According to Bohr the ANGULAR momentum of the electron is an integral multiple of `h//2pi`
i.e., `mvr=(nh)/(2pi)`
de-Broglie argued that these ELECTRONS EXHIBIT wave propertyhaving stationary wave patternhaving nodes at the ends.
The total distance travelled by a wave is an integral multiple of the wave length .
i.e., `2pir=nlambda`
`lambda=h/P=h/(mv)`
`therefore 2pir=(nh)/(mv)`
`mvr=(nh)/(2pi)`
But angular momentum of the ELECTRONIS L=mvr
Hence `L=(nh)/(2pi)`
