The transition that produced red light was caused by an electron jumping the shortest distance.

Visible light is made up of seven wavelengths the magnitude of the wavelength of a transition reflects the energy associated with such transition. The longer the wavelength shorter the transition that produced it.

Given that three lines in the visible spectrum produced three lines as follows;

Red - 625 - 740 nm

Yellow - 565 - 590 nm

Blue - 445 - 520 nm

We can see that the longest wavelength corresponds to red light hence it was caused by an electron jumping the shortest distance.

How is the earths surface shaped by weathering, erosion, and deposition. Give and example of each
rusak2 [61]
FULL ANSWER<span>There are two types of weathering that affect the earth's surface: mechanical and chemical. Mechanical weathering is sometimes called physical weathering and often occurs because of temperature changes on the surface. For example, if enough water seeps into a crack and freezes, it expands. This causes it to work as a wedge and it slowly splits open nearby rocks. As the ice melts, the resulting water carries away bits of the broken rock.C<span>hemical weathering changes the composition of the materials that make up rocks and soil. A good example of this is what happens when carbon dioxide is abundant in an area. High carbon dioxide combined with water produces an acid called carbonic acid. In time, carbonic acid dissolves rock.</span><span>Although both types of weathering are natural processes, humans and animals often unwittingly speed things up. Animals, such as dogs trampling across rocks and soil, speed up the process and air pollution caused by people increase the rate of weathering.</span></span>
