Sample Questions

Q1.The de Broglie wavelength of an electron accelerated through a potential difference V is:

  • Aλ = h/√(2meV)
  • Bλ = h/√(meV)
  • Cλ = √(2meV)/h
  • Dλ = h²/(2meV)

Q2.In an electromagnetic wave, electric and magnetic fields oscillate:

  • APerpendicular to each other and to the direction of propagation
  • BParallel to each other and to the direction of propagation
  • CPerpendicular to each other but parallel to direction of propagation
  • DAt 45° to the direction of propagation

Q3.According to Bohr's model, the radius of the nth orbit of hydrogen atom is proportional to:

  • An²
  • Bn
  • C1/n²
  • Dn³

Q4.If an electron in a hydrogen atom transitions from n = 4 to n = 2, the emitted photon belongs to which series?

  • ABalmer series
  • BLyman series
  • CPaschen series
  • DBrackett series

Q5.The photoelectric effect cannot be explained by the wave theory of light because:

  • AEmission depends on frequency, not intensity of light
  • BEmission depends on intensity of light
  • CElectrons are not emitted by metals
  • DLight has zero rest mass
