A monochromatic light is incident on a hydrogen sample in ground state. Hydrogen atoms absorb a fraction of light and subsequently emit radiation of six different wavelengths. The frequency of incident light is x×1015 Hzx \times 10^{15} \mathrm{~Hz}. The value of xx is_____

(Given h=4.25×10−15eVsh=4.25 \times 10^{-15} \mathrm{eVs} )
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
3
The value of x is 3 because the hydrogen atom emits six different wavelengths, indicating it transitioned to n=4, and we can calculate the frequency of the incident light using the energy difference between n=1 and n=4.
