A drunkard walking in a narrow lane takes 5 steps forward and 3 steps backward, followed again by 5 steps forward and 3 steps backward, and so on. Each step is 1 m long and requires 1 s. Plot the x-t graph of his motion. Determine graphically and otherwise how long the drunkard takes to fall in a pit 13 m away from the start.

H, He^(+), Li^(2+) are examples of atoms or ions with one electron each . The energy of such atoms when in the n-th energy state (according to Bohr,s theory , n=1,2,3…. =principal quantum number ) is E_n =(13.6 Z^2)/(n^2) eV (1 eV =1.6xx10^(-19)J) .
