JEE MAIN - Physics (2022 - 26th July Morning Shift - No. 26)
In the hydrogen spectrum, $$\lambda$$ be the wavelength of first transition line of Lyman series. The wavelength difference will be "a$$\lambda$$'' between the wavelength of $$3^{\text {rd }}$$ transition line of Paschen series and that of $$2^{\text {nd }}$$ transition line of Balmer series where $$\mathrm{a}=$$ ___________.
Answer
5
Explanation
$${1 \over \lambda } = {R_H}\left( {{1 \over {{1^2}}} - {1 \over {{2^2}}}} \right)$$
$${1 \over {{\lambda _3}}} = {R_H}\left( {{1 \over {{3^2}}} - {1 \over {{6^2}}}} \right)$$
$${1 \over {{\lambda _2}}} = {R_H}\left( {{1 \over {{2^2}}} - {1 \over {{4^2}}}} \right)$$
$$\therefore$$ $${\lambda _3} - {\lambda _2} = a\lambda $$
$$a = 5$$
