An Intiative by Sri Chaitanya
a
It was not known that hydrogen lines could be explained as differences of terms like R/n2 with R being a constant and n an integer.
b
It was not known that positive charge is concentrated in a nucleus of small size.
c
It was not known that radiant energy occurred in energy bundles defined by hv with h being a constant and v a frequency.
d
Bohr knew terms like R/n2 and in the process of choosing allowed the orbits to fit them, he got angular momentum=nh/2π as a deduction.
answer is D.

Detailed Solution
a. No, since Balmer formula was known.b. No, since Rutherford scattering experiment was known.c. No, since Einstein's photon theory was known.d. Bohr chose 'allowed' energy levels ∝1/n2 and these led to angular momentum quantized as a derivation.
