Which spectral series of the hydrogen atom is found in the ultraviolet region?

The shortest wavelength of the spectral lines in the Lyman series of the hydrogen spectrum is $915 \text{ Å}$. The longest wavelength of spectral lines in the Balmer series will be: (in $\text{ Å}$)

$A$ doubly ionised $Li$ atom is excited from its ground state $(n = 1)$ to $n = 3$ state. The wavelengths of the spectral lines are given by $\lambda_{32}, \lambda_{31}$ and $\lambda_{21}$. The ratios $\lambda_{32}/\lambda_{31}$ and $\lambda_{21}/\lambda_{31}$ are,respectively:

The difference between the frequencies of the first and second Lyman lines of the hydrogen atom is (where $R$ is the Rydberg constant and $c$ is the speed of light in vacuum).

When an electron in a hydrogen atom jumps from the fourth Bohr orbit to the second Bohr orbit,we get the:
