The answer is n= 6.

What is Balmer series?

The Balmer series is the portion of the emission spectrum of hydrogen that represents electron transitions from energy levels n > 2 to n = 2. These are four lines in the visible spectrum. They are also known as the Balmer lines. The four visible Balmer lines of hydrogen appear at 410 nm, 434 nm, 486 nm and 656 nm.

For the Balmer series, the final energy level is always n=2. So, the wavelengths 653.6, 486.1, 434.0, and 410.2 nm correspond to n=3, n=4, n=5, and n=6 respectively. Since the last wavelength, 410.2 nm, corresponds to n=6, the next wavelength should logically correspond to n=7.

To solve for the wavelength, calculate the individual energies, E2 and E7, using E=-hR/(n^2). Then, calculate the energy difference between E2 (which is the final) and E7 (which is the initial). Finally, use lamba=hc/E to get the wavelength.

Order from biggest to smallest?<br> Milky Way, universe, planets, clusters, and stars
Zinaida [17]
Hello,

The answer is "universe, Milky Way, clusters, stars, planets".

Reason:

The universe would be the biggest because it has all the galaxy's, starts, clusters, and planets into one. Then it would be Milky Way because this is a galaxy that contains: stars, planets, and clusters. Then it would be clusters because that contains stars, or planets in one group. Then be stars because stars are bigger than planets. Then it would be planets. Therefore the order should go like this: <span>Milky Way, universe, planets, clusters, and stars.

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

A projectile is launched vertically at 100 m/s. If air resistance can be ignored, at what speed will it return to its initial le
eduard
<h2>Speed with which it return to its initial level is 100 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Initial velocity, u = 100 m/s  

Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²  

Final velocity, v = ?

Displacement, s = 0 m  

Substituting  

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 100² + 2 x -9.81 x 0

v² = 100²

v = ±100 m/s

+100 m/s is initial velocity and -100 m/s is final velocity.

Speed with which it return to its initial level is 100 m/s
