(v):A hydrogen atom makes a transition from a bound state (Energy of the bound
state = 0.11 eV) to a state with excitation energy (= 10.2 eV). Calculate the
energy of the photon emitted.
[06/04, 2:13 PM] +91 93814 04108: The minimum amount of energy required to energize a particle from its ground state to first excited state is 1*10^4 eV. One photon source P1 corresponding to X ray wavelength 1nm and another photon source p2 corresponding to visible light wavelength 500 nm are available. As a physicist, which one of these photons would you choose for energizing the atom?
[06/04, 2:14 PM] +91 93814 04108: Draw a neat diagram to show the procedure and show your calculations in detail.
