Electrons in a certain energy level n =n_(1), can emit 3 spectral lines. When they are in another energy level, n=n_2. They can emit 6 spectral lines. The orbital speed of the electrons in the two orbits are in the ratio

Answer»

`4:3`
`3:4`
`2:1`
`1:2`

Solution :Number of emissio SPECTRAL lines `N=(n(n-1))/(2)`
`3=(n_(1) (n_(1)-1))/(2)," in first case"`.
Or `n_(1)^(2)-n_(1)=6 =0 or (n_(1)-3) (n_(1)+2)=0`
Take positive root,
`n_(1)=3`
Again, `6=(n_(2)(n_(2)-1))/(2)`, in second case.
Or `n_(2)^(2)-n_(2)-12=0 or (n_(2)-4) (n_(2)+3)=0`
Take positive root, or `n_(2)=4`
Now velocity of electron `v=(2PI KZ e^(2))/(nh)`
`v_(1)/v_(2)=n_(2)/n_(1)=4/3`
