The ratio of shortest wavelength of lines in Balmer and Paschen series is :

  1. A \(1:2\)
  2. B \(2:3\)
  3. C \(3:7\)
  4. D \(4:9\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(4:9\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \frac{1}{\lambda_B} = R \left( \frac{1}{2^2} - \frac{1}{\infty^2} \right) = \frac{R}{4} \implies \lambda_B = \frac{4}{R} \) \( \frac{1}{\lambda_P} = R \left( \frac{1}{3^2} - \frac{1}{\infty^2} \right) = \frac{R}{9} \implies \lambda_P = \frac{9}{R} \)…
