Students have asked these similar questions
(a) Which line in the Balmer series is the first one in the UV part of the spectrum?(b) How many Balmer series lines are in the visible part of the spectrum?(c) How many are in the UV?
In the Balmer series, the wavelength of a certain line is measured as 379.1 nm. What transition does this value correspond to?
A diode laser emits at a wavelength of 750 nm. All of its output energy is absorbed in a detector that measures a total energy of 0.97 J over a period of 60 seconds. How many photons per seconds are being emitted by the laser?  Recall h = 6.64 x 10-34 J s, speed of light = 3.00 x 108 m/s, and 109 nm = 1 m.
