Questions  

A positron -electron pair form a hydrogen like system. Applying Bohr's theory to this system and ignoring any relativistic effects, the distance (a) between the positron and
electron in the ground state is given by

a
a>0.53A0
b
a<0.53A0
c
a=0.53A0
d
a=1.06A0

detailed solution

Correct option is A

For the position -electron system, the mass of the position = mass of the electron, much less than that of a proton . the distance in the ground state > aB (hydrogen atom)A careful calculation shows a ≃1.06 A0 ( = 2 aB)
