Q20.In Bohr's atomic model of hydrogen, let K, P and E are the kinetic energy, potential energy and total energy of the electron respectively. Choose the correct option when the electron undergoes transitions to a higher level : (1) All K, P and E increase. (2) K decreases, P and E increase. (3) P decreases, K and E increase. (4) K increases, P and E decrease
