The frequencies for the series limit of the Balmer and Paschen series are $f_1$ and $f_3$,respectively. If the frequency of the first line of the Balmer series is $f_2$,then the relation between $f_1, f_2$,and $f_3$ is:

  • A
    $f_1-f_2=f_3$
  • B
    $f_1+f_3=f_2$
  • C
    $f_1+f_2=f_3$
  • D
    $f_2-f_3=2 f_1$

The ratio of maximum to minimum wavelength in the Balmer series of the hydrogen atom is

The wavelengths corresponding to the first four spectral lines of the Lyman series of the $H$-atom are $\lambda = 1218 \, \mathring{A}, 1028 \, \mathring{A}, 974.3 \, \mathring{A}$,and $951.4 \, \mathring{A}$. Now,consider a deuterium atom instead of a hydrogen atom. Given the mass of the hydrogen atom is $1.6725 \times 10^{-27} \, kg$,the mass of the deuterium atom is $3.3374 \times 10^{-27} \, kg$,and the mass of the electron is $9.109 \times 10^{-31} \, kg$,calculate the percentage change in the wavelength of the first spectral line of the Lyman series for the deuterium atom relative to the hydrogen atom.
