When a hydrogen atom is bombarded, the atom may be raised into a higher energy state. As the excited electron falls back to the lower energy levels, light is emitted. What are the three longest-wavelength spectral lines emitted by the hydrogen atom as it returns to the n = 1 state from higher energy states? Give your answers to three significant figures.

Solution:
When a hydrogen atom is bombarded, the atom may be raised into a higher energy s
