Give the equation which give electromagnetic energy (light) that can have only certain discrete energy values .

Assertion (A) : We can find the position and velocity of an electron in an atom simultaneously. Reason ® : The short wavelength light interacts with the electron and disturb the motion of the electron.

When electron jumps from higher orbit to lower orbit, then energy is radiated in the form of electro magnetic radiation and these radiations are used to record the emission spectrum Energy of electron may be calculated as E= (2pi^2 m_e Z^2 e^4)/(n^2 h^2) where m_e = rest mass of electron DeltaE = (E_(n_2)- E_(n_1)) = 13.6xxZ^2 xx [1/(n_1^2) - 1/(n_2^2)] eV per atom This equation was also used by Rydberg to calculate the wave number of a particular line in the spectrum. bar(upsilon) = 1/(lambda) = R_H Z^2 [1/(n_1^2) -1/n_2^2] m^(-1) Where , R_H = 1.1 xx 10^7 m^(-1) (Rydberg constant) For Lyman, Balmer, Paschen, Brackett and Pfund series the value of n_1 = 1,2,3,4,5 respectively and n_2 = oo for series limit, If an electron jumps from higher orbit n to ground state than number of spectral line will be ""^nC_2 . Ritz modified the Rydberg equation by replacing the rest mass of electron with reduced mass (mu) . 1/(mu) = 1/(m_N) + 1/(m_e) , Here m_N mass of nucleus , m_e = mass of electron. The ratio of the wavelength of the first line to that of second line of Paschen series of H-atom is:

For an LED to emit light in visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum, it can have energy band gap in the range of, ( Plank's constant, h = 6.6 xx 10^(-34) Js and speed of light, e = 3 xx 10^(8) ms^(-1) in vacuum )
