Q 143 Marks Question3 Marks
A hot gas emits radiation of wavelengths 46.0nm, 82.8nm and 103.5nm only. Assume that the atoms have only two excited states and the difference between consecutive energy levels decreases as energy is increased. Taking the energy of the highest energy state to be zero, find the energies of the ground state and the first excited state.

Q 153 Marks Question3 Marks
When a photon is emitted from an atom, the atom recoils. The kinetic energy of recoil and the energy of the photon come from the difference in energies between the states involved in the transition. Suppose, a hydrogen atom changes its state from n = 3 to n = 2. Calculate the fractional change in the wavelength of light emitted, due to the recoil.

A beam of monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$ ejects photoelectrons from a cesium surface $\big(\Phi=1.9\text{eV}\big).$ These photoelectrons are made to collide with hydrogen atoms in ground state. Find the maximum value of $\lambda$ for which (a) hydrogen atoms may be ionized, (b) hydrogen atoms may get excited from the ground state to the first excited state and (c) the excited hydrogen atoms may emit visible light.

What will be the energy corresponding to the first excited state of a hydrogen atom if the potential energy of the atom is taken to be 10eV when the electron is widely separated from the proton?
