Verified by Experts

(a) `H_(beta)` line of Balmer series corresponds to the transition from `n=4` to `n=2` level. The corresponding wavelength for `H_(beta)` line is,
`(1)/(lambda)=(1.097xx10^(7))((1)/(2^(2))-(1)/(4^(2)))`
`=0.2056xx10^(7)`
`lambda=4.9xx10^(-7)m`
(b) `v=(c )/(lambda)=(3.0xx10^(8))/(4.9xx10^(-7))`
`=6.12xx10^(14)Hz`
