Solution

For λ1 = 589 nm

Frequency of transition  `("v"_1) = "c"/lambda_1`

`= (3.0xx10^(8) " ms"^(-1))/(589xx10^(-9) " m")`

Frequency of transition (ν1) = 5.093 × 1014 s–1

Similarly, for λ2 = 589.6 nm

Frequency of transition `("v"_2) = "c"/lambda_2`

`= (3.0 xx 10^8 " ms"^(-1))/(589.6xx10^(-9) " m")`

Frequency of transition (ν2) = 5.088 × 1014 s–1

Energy difference (ΔE) between excited states = E1 – E2

Where,

E2 = energy associated with λ2

E1 = energy associated with λ1

ΔE = hν1 – hν2

= h(ν1 – ν2)

= (6.626 × 10-34 Js) (5.093 × 1014 – 5.088 × 1014)s-1

= (6.626 × 10-34 J) (5.0 × 10-3 × 1014)

ΔE = 3.31 × 10-22 J

The inverse square law in electrostatics is |F| = `e^2/((4πε_0).r^2)` for the force between an electron and a proton.

Estimate the change in the ground state energy of a H-atom if mp were 10-6 times the mass of an electron.
