(2) $\mathrm{r}=\frac{1}{3}$
(3) $\mathrm{r}=\frac{4}{3}$
(4) $r=\frac{2}{3}$
[JEE Main-2017]
Ans. (2)
using $\Delta \mathrm{E}=\frac{\mathrm{hC}}{\lambda}$
for $\lambda_{1} \quad-\mathrm{E}-(-2 \mathrm{E})=\frac{\mathrm{hC}}{\lambda_{1}}$
$\lambda_{1}=\frac{\mathrm{hC}}{\mathrm{E}}$
for $\lambda_{2} \quad-\mathrm{E}-\left(-\frac{4 \mathrm{E}}{3}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{hC}}{\lambda_{2}}$
$\lambda_{2}=\frac{3 \mathrm{h} \mathrm{C}}{\mathrm{E}}$
$\frac{\lambda_{1}}{\lambda_{2}}=\mathrm{r}=\frac{1}{3}$

$\mathrm{mv}=\mathrm{mv}_{1}+\frac{\mathrm{m}}{2} \mathrm{v}_{2}$
$2 \mathrm{v}=2 \mathrm{v}_{1}+\mathrm{v}_{2}$ ....(1)
by law of collision
$\mathrm{e}=\frac{\mathrm{V}_{2}-\mathrm{V}_{1}}{\mathrm{u}_{1}-\mathrm{u}_{2}}$

By equation (1) and (2)
Option (4)
By conservation of linear momentum
$\mathrm{mv}=\mathrm{mv}_{1}+\frac{\mathrm{m}}{2} \mathrm{v}_{2}$
$2 \mathrm{v}=2 \mathrm{v}_{1}+\mathrm{v}_{2}$ ....(1)
by law of collision
$\mathrm{e}=\frac{\mathrm{V}_{2}-\mathrm{V}_{1}}{\mathrm{u}_{1}-\mathrm{u}_{2}}$

Option (4)
Q. An electron from various excited states of hydrogen atom emit radiation to come to the ground state. Let $\lambda_{\mathrm{n}}, \lambda_{\mathrm{g}}$ be the de Broglie wavelength of the electron in the nth state and the ground state respectively. Let be the wavelength of the emitted photon in the transition from the nth state to the ground state. For large n, (A, B are constants)
$(1) \Lambda_{\mathrm{n}} \approx \mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B} \lambda_{\mathrm{n}}$
$(2) \Lambda_{\mathrm{n}}^{2} \approx \mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B} \lambda_{\mathrm{n}}^{2}$
(3) $\Lambda_{\mathrm{n}}^{2} \approx \lambda$
(4) $\Lambda_{\mathrm{n}} \approx \mathrm{A}+\frac{\mathrm{B}}{\lambda_{\mathrm{n}}^{2}}$
[JEE Main-2018]
Ans. (4)
$\lambda_{\mathrm{n}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{mu}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\sqrt{2 \mathrm{mk}_{\mathrm{n}}}}$
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{n}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{m} \lambda_{\mathrm{n}}^{2}} ; \mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{g}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{m} \lambda_{\mathrm{g}}^{2}}$
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{g}}-\mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{n}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{m}}\left[\frac{1}{\lambda_{\mathrm{g}}^{2}}-\frac{1}{\lambda_{\mathrm{n}}^{2}}\right]$
$\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{n}}=-\mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{n}}$
for emitted photon
$\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\Lambda_{\mathrm{n}}}=\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{n}}-\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{g}}=\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{g}}-\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{n}}$
$\frac{1}{\Lambda_{\mathrm{n}}}=\frac{\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{g}}-\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{n}}}{\mathrm{hc}}$
$\Lambda_{\mathrm{n}}=\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{g}}-\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{n}}} \Rightarrow \Lambda_{\mathrm{n}}=\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\frac{\mathrm{h}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{m}}\left[\frac{1}{\lambda_{\mathrm{g}}^{2}}-\frac{1}{\lambda_{\mathrm{n}}^{2}}\right]}$
$\Lambda_{\mathrm{n}}=\frac{2 \mathrm{mc}}{\mathrm{h}\left(\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{n}}^{2}-\lambda_{\mathrm{g}}^{2}}{\lambda_{\mathrm{g}}^{2} \lambda_{\mathrm{n}}^{2}}\right)}$
$\Lambda_{\mathrm{n}}=\frac{2 \mathrm{mc} \lambda_{\mathrm{g}}^{2} \lambda_{\mathrm{n}}^{2}}{\mathrm{h}\left(\lambda_{\mathrm{n}}^{2}-\lambda_{\mathrm{g}}^{2}\right)}$
as $\lambda_{\mathrm{n}} \propto \mathrm{n}$
$\lambda_{\mathrm{n}}>>\lambda_{\mathrm{g}}$
$\Lambda_{\mathrm{n}}=\frac{2 \mathrm{mc} \lambda_{\mathrm{g}}^{2}}{\mathrm{h}}\left[1-\left(\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{g}}}{\lambda_{\mathrm{n}}}\right)^{2}\right]^{-1}$
Q. If the series limit frequency of the Lyman series is $\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{L}}$, then the series limit frequency of the Pfund series is :
(1) $16 \mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{L}}$
(2) $\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{L}} / 16$
(3) $\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{L}} / 25$
(4) $25 \mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{L}}$
