The Lyman series is brighter than the Balmer series,because this series of transitions ends up in the mostcommon state for hydrogen, the ground state. Why thenwas the Balmer series discovered first?
Find the ratio v>c for an electron in the first excited state 1n = 22of hydrogen.
Suppose an electron was bound to a proton, as in thehydrogen atom, but by the gravitational force rather thanby the electric force. What would be the radius, and energy,of the first Bohr orbit?
