Why Zero Angular Momentum in the First Bohr Orbit?

Authors: Eric Louis Beaubien

In classical mechanics, the first Bohr orbit has angular momentum 1(ℏ) but ‘0’ angular momentum in quantum mechanics. The geometric/logical reason for this is that a single DeBroglie wavelength (amplitude) when squared has only two possible places for an electron to be. The number of places must be more than two to determine angular momentum.
