hi guys, having a bit of trouble answering this physics question. Wondering if any of the experts can help me out.
Can the electromagnetic radiation produced by a hot gas of hydrogen atoms be exactly of one frequency?
not sure if this is true or not. They say also that the atoms make a transition from state n=2 to n=1 and that all atoms are moving.
hope someone can help
oh, a similar question involving state transitions
A hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from the state n=3 to n=2 and then another transition from n=2 to n=1. Two photons are created due to these processes. Which photon has the higher frequency?
any thoughts?
thanks
