    In the hydrogen atom, an electron makes a transition from n = 2 to n = 1. The magnetic field produced by the circulating electron at the nucleus -     

    A)      decreases 16 times

    B)  increases 4 times

    C)  decreases 4 times

    D)  increases 32 times

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] \[\because B=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2r}\text{ and}\,\,\,\,\,\text{ }I=\frac{e}{T}\] \[B=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}e}{2rT}\left[ r\propto {{n}^{2}},T\propto {{n}^{5}} \right];\] \[B\propto \frac{1}{{{n}^{5}}}\]
