    $2$
  • B
    $4$

The energy levels of an atom are shown below. When an electron makes a transition from an energy level of $2E$ to an energy level of $E$,the wavelength of the emitted electromagnetic radiation is $\lambda$. What is the wavelength of the emitted photon when the electron makes a transition from an energy level of $4E/3$ to an energy level of $E$?

$A$ monochromatic light is incident on a hydrogen sample in the ground state. Hydrogen atoms absorb a fraction of light and subsequently emit radiation of six different wavelengths. The frequency of incident light is $x \times 10^{15} \ Hz$. The value of $x$ is (Given $h = 4.25 \times 10^{-15} \ eVs$)
