    In hydrogen atom, electron makes transition from n =4 to n = 1 level. Recoil momentum of the H atom will be

    A) \[3.4\times {{10}^{-27}}N\text{-}\sec \]

    B) \[6.8\times {{10}^{-27}}N\text{-}\sec \]

    C) \[3.4\times {{10}^{-24}}N\text{-}\sec \]

    D) \[6.8\times {{10}^{-24}}N\text{-}\sec \]  

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] Recoil momentum = momentum of photon \[=\frac{h}{\lambda }\] \[=hR\left( \frac{1}{{{n}^{2}}_{1}}-\frac{1}{{{n}^{2}}_{2}} \right)=\frac{hR\times 15}{16}=6.8\times {{10}^{-27}}\] N-sec
