In the hydrogen spectrum,the wavelengths of light emitted in a series of spectral lines is given by the equation,$\frac{1}{\lambda}=R\left(\frac{1}{4^{2}}-\frac{1}{n^{2}}\right)$,where $n=5, 6, 7, \ldots$ and $R$ is Rydberg's constant. Identify the series and wavelength region.

The wavelength of a spectral line emitted by a hydrogen atom in the Balmer series is $\frac{16}{3 R}$ ($R$ is the Rydberg constant). What is the value of the principal quantum number of the state from which the transition takes place?

Let $\lambda_P$ and $\lambda_L$ be the longest wavelengths observed in the Paschen and Lyman series respectively. Choose the correct option.

The wavelength of the first line of the Balmer series is $6563 \; Å$. The Rydberg constant for hydrogen is about

In a hydrogen atom spectrum,when an electron jumps from the second excited state to the first excited state,the wavelength of radiation emitted is $\lambda$. If the electron jumps from the third excited state to the second orbit,the wavelength of radiation emitted will be $20 \lambda / x$. The value of $x$ is
