MCQ
The main defect of Bohr's atom model is :
  • A
    mixing of classical and quantum theories
  • B
    exclusion of nuclear motion
  • C
    failed to explain the fine structure of spectral lines
  • failed to explain larger atoms

Answer

Correct option: D.
failed to explain larger atoms
Bohr's model can only clearly explain hydrogen or hydrogen-like atoms, it fails when applied to larger and heavier atoms like iron, gold, mercury, etc.

A thin strip $10\, cm$ long is on a $U$ shaped wire of negligible resistance and it is connected to a spring of spring constant $0.5\,Nm^{-1}$ (see figure). The assembly is kept in a uniform magnetic field of $0.1\, T$. If the strip is pulled from its equilibrium position and released, the number of oscillations it performs before its amplitude decreases by a factor of $e$ is $N$. If the mass of the strip is $50\, grams$, its resistance $10\,\Omega $ and air drag negligible, $N$ will be close to
