    The velocity of an electron in the second orbit of sodium atom (atomic number = 11) is v. The velocity of an electron in its fifth orbit will be                                                         [MP PET 1999]

    A)            v    

    B)            \[\frac{22}{5}v\]

    C)            \[\frac{5}{2}v\]                   

    D)            \[\frac{2}{5}v\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

               vn \[\propto \frac{1}{n}\] Þ \[\frac{{{v}_{5}}}{{{v}_{2}}}=\frac{2}{5}\Rightarrow {{v}_{5}}=\frac{2}{5}{{v}_{2}}=\frac{2}{5}v\]
