  4. D 7200 Å
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 4000 Å

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left( \frac{1}{n_1^2} - \frac{1}{n_2^2} \right)\) \(\lambda = \frac{1}{R \left( \frac{1}{2^2} - \frac{1}{\infty^2} \right)} = \frac{4}{R}\) \(\lambda = \frac{4}{10^7 \text{ m}^{-1}} = 4 \times 10^{-7} \text{ m}\)…
