Using your spectroscope, you observe a light source and see several strong, distinct lines. Is this source continuous or discrete? Given a line with a wavelength corresponding to 500 nm, calculate the energy of the emitted light. Given a photon emitted from a hydrogen lamp with a wavelength of 434 nm, identify the correct transition in the Balmer series. R_h = 2.18 *10^(-18) J. (Hint: it is in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum) Looking through your spectroscope, you...
