Question

Bohr's quantised orbits correspond to de Broglie's electron waves in phase. How do you correlate the two?

Solution

In Bohr's orbit mvr=nh2π(I) i.e. it is quantised.
De broglie's electron wave Zn=hmv.........(II)
Standing wave condition : circumference=whole number of wavelengths
2πr=nZn........(III)
Putting (III) in (I) will get (II)
Zn=hmv
