•19 O Figure 39-28a shows the energy-level diagram for a fi-
nite, one-dimensional energy well that contains an electron. The
nonquantized region begins at E= 450.0 eV. Figure 39-28b gives
the absorption spectrum of the electron when it is in the ground
state-it can absorb at the indicated wavelengths: A=14.588 nm
and Ag = 4.8437 nm and for any wavelength less than A, = 2.9108
nm. What is the energy of the first excited state?
