Question
In Niels Bohrs 1913 model of the hydrogen atom, the single electron is in a circular orbit of radius 5.29 3 10211 m and its speed is 2.19 3 106 m/s. (a) What is the magnitude of the magnetic moment due to the electrons motion? (b) If the electron moves in a horizontal circle, counterclockwise as seen from above, what is the direction of this magnetic moment vector?
Solution
Step 1 of 3
The magnetic moment of a current carrying conductor is calculated from the current flowing through it and the area of the loop. It is equal to the product of current and area. Its direction is calculated by the right hand thumb rule.
