==Bohr's Early Life==

Niels Henrik David Bohr was born on October 7, 1885 in Copenhagen, Denmark. His father, Christian Bohr was the Professor of Physiology at Copenhagen University. Growing up as University Professor's sons, Niels and his little brother Herald acquired their curiosity of physics and mathematics at an early age. Niels mother, Ellen Bohr, came from a family with a background in education. Niels attended Gammelholm Grammar School before entering Copenhagen University in 1903. In 1909, he pursued his Master's degree in Physics under the teaching of Professor C. Christiansen, a highly endowed physicist. In 1911, Niels earned his Doctor's degree.

Bohr doctor's disputation was a theorhetical piece of work on the explanation of the properties of metals. He used the electron theory to aid him in his research. It was during this time that he

===The Bohr Model===

Niels Bohr introduced the Bohr model of the atom in 1913. This model depicts the atom as a small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons that travel in circular orbits around the nucleus. The Bohr model is basically a quantum physical understanding of the earlier Rutherford model. The Bohr model helped to explain the reason for the structure of the Rydberg formula. It also helped justify the formula's empirical results concerning fundamental physical constants.

Bohr's model of the atom was new unlike planetary models of atoms. Bohr started his research and explanations with Darwin's paper on the role of electrons in the interaction of alpha particles with a nucleus. Using this, Bohr introduced the idea that an electron could drop from a higher-energy orbit to a lower-energy orbit while emitting a quantum of discrete energy. This theory became the underlying theory in the old quantum theory.

Compared to the valence shell atom the Bohr model is mostly a simple and natural model of the hydrogen atom. In theory, the Bohr model can be derived as a first order approximation of the hydrogen atom. The theory uses broad and more accurate quantum mechanics than the hydrogen atom, so it is considered an obsolete scientific theory. This model is commonly used to give students an introduction to quantum mechanics.

This theory became the underlying theory in the old quantum theory.

In 1885, about 30 years before Bohr came up with his model, Johann Balmer came up with the Balmer series which was an equation used to describe the visible spectral lines of a hydrogen atom. It was confirmed that Balmer's formula (below) worked but no one could explain why it worked.

<math>{\frac{1}{\lambda}} = R_\mathrm{H}\left{\frac{1}{2^2} - \frac{1}{n^2}\right}}<\math> {for~} n=3,4,5,...

where λ is the wavelength of the absorbed or emitted light and RH is the Rydberg constant. When Bohr came up with his model of the hydrogen atom he was able to derive from his model why it worked:

R_Z = { 2\pi^2 m_e Z^2 e^4 \over h^3 }

where me is the electron's mass, e is its charge, h is Planck's constant and Z is the atom's atomic number.

In theory, the Bohr model can be derived as a first order approximation of the hydrogen atom.

__NOTOC__
Welcome to the Georgia Tech Wiki for Intro Physics. This resources was created so that students can contribute and curate content to help those with limited or no access to a textbook. When reading this website, please correct any errors you may come across. If you read something that isn't clear, please consider revising it!

Looking to make a contribution?
#Pick a specific topic from intro physics
#Add that topic, as a link to a new page, under the appropriate category listed below by editing this page.
#Copy and paste the default [[Template]] into your new page and start editing.

Please remember that this is not a textbook and you are not limited to expressing your ideas with only text and equations. Whenever possible embed: pictures, videos, diagrams, simulations, computational models (e.g. Glowscript), and whatever content you think makes learning physics easier for other students.

== Source Material ==
All of the content added to this resource must be in the public domain or similar free resource. If you are unsure about a source, contact the original author for permission. That said, there is a surprisingly large amount of introductory physics content scattered across the web. Here is an incomplete list of intro physics resources (please update as needed).
* A physics resource written by experts for an expert audience [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Physics Physics Portal]
* A wiki book on modern physics [https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Modern_Physics Modern Physics Wiki]
* The MIT open courseware for intro physics [http://ocw.mit.edu/resources/res-8-002-a-wikitextbook-for-introductory-mechanics-fall-2009/index.htm MITOCW Wiki]
* An online concept map of intro physics [http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/hph.html HyperPhysics]
* Interactive physics simulations [https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations/category/physics PhET]
* OpenStax algebra based intro physics textbook [https://openstaxcollege.org/textbooks/college-physics College Physics]

* A resource guide compiled by the [http://www.aapt.org/ AAPT] for educators [http://www.compadre.org/ ComPADRE]

== Organizing Categories ==
These are the broad, overarching categories, that we cover in two semester of introductory physics. You can add subcategories or make a new category as needed. A single topic should direct readers to a page in one of these catagories.
