The alpha line in the Balmer series is the transition from n=3 to n=2 and with the wavelength of λ=656 nm = 6.56*10^-7 m. To get the frequency we need the formula: v=λ*f where v is the speed of light, λ is the wavelength and f is the frequency, or c=λ*f. c=3*10^8 m/s. To get the frequency: f=c/λ. Now we input the numbers: f=(3*10^8)/(6.56*10^-7)=4.57*10^14 Hz. So the frequency of the light from alpha line is f= 4.57*10^14 Hz.

What is the kinetic energy of a 1200 kg object that is moving at a speed of 24m/s?
n200080 [17]
Here, K.E. = 1/2 * mv²

So, K.E. = 1/2 * (1200) * (24)²

K.E. = 1/2 * 1200 * 576

K.E. = 600 * 576

K.E. = 345,600 J

Hope this helps!
