So to answer the question I'd just mark a line on either side and label them respectively then just explain why there found there wow easy!PeroK said:
The Paschen and Lyman series are two specific series of spectral lines in the electromagnetic spectrum that are produced by the transitions of electrons within atoms. They are named after the scientists who first studied and described them.
The main difference between the Paschen and Lyman series is the energy level of the electron transitions that produce the spectral lines. The Paschen series is produced by transitions from higher energy levels to the third energy level, while the Lyman series is produced by transitions from higher energy levels to the first energy level.
The Paschen and Lyman series are important in the study of atomic structure and the behavior of electrons within atoms. They provide evidence for the quantization of energy levels in atoms and have been used to develop models of atomic structure.
The Balmer series is another series of spectral lines in the electromagnetic spectrum that is produced by transitions from higher energy levels to the second energy level. The Paschen and Lyman series are both extensions of the Balmer series, with the Paschen series occurring at longer wavelengths and the Lyman series occurring at shorter wavelengths.
The formula for calculating the wavelengths of the Paschen and Lyman series is given by the Rydberg formula: 1/λ = R(1/n2 - 1/m2), where λ is the wavelength, R is the Rydberg constant, and n and m are the energy levels involved in the transition. For the Paschen series, n=3 and m=4, 5, 6... and for the Lyman series, n=1 and m=2, 3, 4...
