Homework Statement
the wavelengths of the emission lines produced by the hydrogen atom are given by the formula:
1/lambda = 1.096776 x 10^-2 ((1/n2^2) - (1/n1^2)) nm^-1
(a) what are the wavelengths of the first two lines in the Balmer series, H-alpha and H-beta (involving transitions...
how do you get lambda = h/mv
i know E = hc/lambda = h/mv
so, if i combine both equations, shouldn't i suppose to get lambda = cmv ?
did i miss something or what.
