Correct answer: D

  1. Magnetic moment of a revolving electron

    For an electron moving in a circular orbit, the magnetic moment is μ=IA\mu = I Aμ=IA where III is the orbital current and AAA is the area of the orbit.

  2. Current due to revolving electron

    If the time period of revolution is TTT, then I=eTI = \frac{e}{T}I=Te​ Also, for circular motion, T=2πrvT = \frac{2\pi r}{v}T=v2πr​ Hence, I=ev2πrI = \frac{ev}{2\pi r}I=2πrev​

  3. Area of the orbit

    A=πr2A = \pi r^2A=πr2

    Therefore, μ=IA=ev2πr⋅πr2=evr2\mu = IA = \frac{ev}{2\pi r} \cdot \pi r^2 = \frac{evr}{2}μ=IA=2πrev​⋅πr2=2evr​

  4. Use Bohr quantization

    In the Bohr model, mvr=nh2πmvr = \frac{nh}{2\pi}mvr=2πnh​ So, vr=nh2πmvr = \frac{nh}{2\pi m}vr=2πmnh​

    Substituting into magnetic moment: μn=e2(vr)=e2⋅nh2πm\mu_n = \frac{e}{2}(vr) = \frac{e}{2}\cdot \frac{nh}{2\pi m}μn​=2e​(vr)=2e​⋅2πmnh​ μn=neh4πm\mu_n = \frac{neh}{4\pi m}μn​=4πmneh​

    Thus, μn∝n\mu_n \propto nμn​∝n

  5. Compare with given form

    Since μn∝nx\mu_n \propto n^xμn​∝nx we get x=1x=1x=1

  6. Option check

    • A: 222 ❌
    • B: 000 ❌
    • C: 333 ❌
    • D: 111 ✅

Therefore, the correct answer is D.
