De Broglie Wavelength and Bohr Orbits

Description
This demonstration illustrates the wave-particle duality of electrons by modeling their behavior in Bohr orbits. According to de Broglie's hypothesis, electrons in atoms exhibit wave-like properties, with their orbits corresponding to standing waves. The model shows that only specific orbits are allowed, where the circumference of the orbit is an integer multiple of the electron's wavelength. This concept is fundamental to quantum mechanics and explains why electrons occupy discrete energy levels in atoms.
