A) 7/5
B) 27/20
C) 27/5
D) 20/7
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Here, for wavelength \[{{\lambda }_{1}}\] \[{{n}_{1}}=4\]and\[{{n}_{2}}=3\] and for \[{{\lambda }_{2}},\,{{n}_{1}}=3\] and \[{{n}_{2}}=2\] We have\[\frac{hc}{\lambda }=-13.6\left[ \frac{1}{n_{2}^{2}}-\frac{1}{n_{1}^{2}} \right]\] So, for\[{{\lambda }_{1}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{hc}{{{\lambda }_{1}}}=-13.6\left[ \frac{1}{{{(4)}^{2}}}-\frac{1}{{{(3)}^{2}}} \right]\] \[\frac{hc}{{{\lambda }_{1}}}=13.6\left[ \frac{7}{144} \right]\] ?(1) Similarly, for \[{{\lambda }_{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{hc}{{{\lambda }_{2}}}=-13.6\left[ \frac{1}{{{(3)}^{2}}}-\frac{1}{{{(2)}^{2}}} \right]\] \[\frac{hc}{{{\lambda }_{2}}}=13.6\left[ \frac{5}{36} \right]\] ?(ii) Hence, from Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get \[\frac{{{\lambda }_{1}}}{{{\lambda }_{2}}}=\frac{20}{7}\]You need to login to perform this action.
