Drops to the ground state. Use this formula. Hydrogen has a 1 Z number.

Frequency = (3.29 X 1015 Hertz) * Z2 * (1/Nf2 - 1/Ni2)

To keep it positive,

Frequency = (3.29 X 1015 Hertz) * 12 * (1/22 - 1/02)

= 8.23 X 1014 Hertz emitted

What is hydrogen shine?

The hydrogen line or "shine" is the frequency (1420.40575177 MHz) or wavelength (21.10611405413 cm) of electromagnetic energy emitted by an excited hydrogen atom. This is not a "shine" in the sense of visible - it is in the microwave frequency range. It is useful in radio astronomy because it passes through dust clouds that block visible light.


A light is emitted from a laser.its frequency is 630THz.what is the wavelength and color?

You can get the wavelength by dividing the speed of light by the frequency. Don't forget that THz means 10 to the power 12 Hz.


How do you calculate the frequency of light emitted in chemicals?

There are several ways to calculate the frequency of light emitted or absorbed by different chemicals, and they depend on what you already know. For example, if you know the energy of the particle, then you can calculate frequency from E = planck's constant x frequency and solve for frequency. If you happen to know the wavelength, then you can use C = wavelength x frequency and solve for frequency (where C = speed of light).


How do you calculate the energy of violet light emitted by a hydrogen atom with a wavelength of 410.1nm?

4.85*10^-19


How do the wavelength and frequency of light from Andromeda seem to changed when viewed from earth?

the wavelength of any reflected or emitted photon or other particle is shortened in the direction of travel.

How can astronomers detect structure in the suns chromosphere?

The structure of the chromosphere is studied primarily using filtergrams. Filtergrams are images of the sun taken through a filter that lets in a very narrow wavelength band of light, such as light emitted by the Hydrogen-alpha transition.


What is the wavelength of the photon emitted when a hydrogen atom goes from the second energy level to the first energy level?

What determines the frequency and wavelength of light emitted by an LED?

These are detemined by the band gap (a zone without electrons) of the solid used in LED.


How do you find the wavelength of a sound emitted by a tuning fork at 440 vibrations-second and the speed of sound is 332 m per s?

Wavelength = speed /frequency = 332/440 = 75.45 cm(rounded)


Energy lost by an electron during its transition from an outer to an inner orbit is emitted as a flash of light called a?

Energy lost by an electron during its transition from an outer to an inner orbit is emitted as a flash of light called an emission. Light/energy emissions are released in a characteristic manner (wavelength) that corresponds to the amount of energy lost.


To which series would the emitted light belong if an electron in a hydrogen atom underwent a transition from level n 5 to level n 1?
