Magnetic field at the centre of the hydrogen atom due to motion of electron in nth orbit is proportional to
Magnetic field at the centre of the hydrogen atom due to motion of electron in nth orbit is proportional to
Show Hint
Physics Tip : As the principal quantum number $n$ increases, both the current decreases and the radius increases, leading to a very rapid decrease ($1/n^5$) in the central magnetic field.

In a uniform magnetic field of \(0.049 T\), a magnetic needle performs \(20\) complete oscillations in \(5\) seconds as shown. The moment of inertia of the needle is \(9.8 \times 10 kg m^2\). If the magnitude of magnetic moment of the needle is \(x \times 10^{-5} Am^2\); then the value of '\(x\)' is
