To solve the problem regarding the relationship between the wavelengths of the spectral lines \( \lambda_1 \), \( \lambda_2 \), and \( \lambda_3 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Energy Levels We have three energy levels in an atom, which we can denote as \( E_1 \), \( E_2 \), and \( E_3 \). The transitions between these energy levels give rise to the spectral lines with wavelengths \( \lambda_1 \), \( \lambda_2 \), and \( \lambda_3 \). ### Step 2: Establish the Order of Wavelengths According to the problem, the wavelengths are in increasing order: \[ ...
