Q. 17

Page 1207

An electron accelerates through a 12.5V potential difference, starting from rest, and then collides with a hydrogen atom, exciting the atom to the highest energy level allowed. List all the possible quantum-jump transitions by which the excited atom could emit a photon and the wavelength (in nm) of each.
