Two hydrogen-like atoms `A` and `B` are of different masses and each atom contains equal numbers of protons and neutrons. The difference in the energies between the first Balmer lines emitted by `A and B` , is `5.667 e V`. When atom atoms `A and B` moving with the same velocity , strike a heavy target , they rebound with the same velocity in the process, atom `B` imparts twice the momentum to the target than that `A` imparts. Identify the atom `A and B`.
