Assuming & to be the frequency of the electromagnetic wave corresponding to the first line in Balmer& series, the frequency of the immediate next line is
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
B.
Step-by-step solution
For Balmer series, =2 and =3,4,5,....
Frequency, of 1st spectral line of Balmer series
f = RZ^{2}c of 2nd spectral line of Balmer series
f’ =RZ^{2}c \left(\dfrac{1}{{2}^{2}} - \dfrac{1}{{4}^{2}}\right)f′ = RZ^{2}c \times \dfrac{3}{16}\dfrac{f}{f′}= \dfrac{20}{27}∴ f^{′} = \dfrac{27}{20}f = 1.35f
