To show: Magnetic dipole moment of an electron is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Orbital
Atom is hydrogen.
Formula used:
In a circular orbit, angular momentum L is given by
Here, m is mass of electron, v is speed and r is radius of electron.
Magnetic dipole moment is given by
Calculation:
Time of travel is
Here,
v is the velocity
d is the circumference and r is the radius of an orbit.
For a proton nucleus of hydrogen atom,
Substituting the values,
To deduce the above relation in terms of orbital angular momentum, multiply and divide by m ,
