$A$ free hydrogen atom after absorbing a photon of wavelength $\lambda_{a}$ gets excited from the state $n=1$ to the state $n=4$. Immediately after that,the electron jumps to $n=m$ state by emitting a photon of wavelength $\lambda_{e}$. Let the change in momentum of the atom due to the absorption and the emission be $\Delta p_{a}$ and $\Delta p_{e}$,respectively. If $\lambda_{a} / \lambda_{e} = 1/5$,which of the following options is/are correct?
[Use $hc = 1242 \text{ eV nm}$; $1 \text{ nm} = 10^{-9} \text{ m}$,$h$ and $c$ are Planck's constant and speed of light,respectively]
$(1)$ $\lambda_{e} = 418 \text{ nm}$
$(2)$ The ratio of kinetic energy of the electron in the state $n=m$ to the state $n=1$ is $1/4$
$(3)$ $m=2$
$(4)$ $\Delta p_{a} / \Delta p_{e} = 1/2$

The magnitude of angular momentum,orbit radius,and frequency of revolution of an electron in a hydrogen atom corresponding to quantum number $n$ are $L, r$,and $f$ respectively. According to Bohr's theory of the hydrogen atom,which of the following is constant for all orbits?

If the radius of the first Bohr orbit in a hydrogen atom is $0.53 \, \mathring A$,then the radius of the third Bohr orbit will be ....... $\mathring A$.

In the hydrogen atom, the electron makes a transition from the higher orbit $(i)$ to a lower orbit $(f)$. The ratio of the radius of the orbits is given by $r_i : r_f = 16 : 4$. The wavelength of the photon emitted due to this transition is . . . . . . nm. (Given Rydberg constant $R = 1.0973 \times 10^7 \text{ m}^{-1}$)
