Multiple choice
The Balmer series of hydrogen follows 1/λ=RH(1/nlower21/nupper2)1/\lambda = R_H (1/n_\text{lower}^2 - 1/n_\text{upper}^2) with RH=1.09678×107 m1R_H = 1.09678 \times 10^7\ \text{m}^{-1} and nlower=2n_\text{lower} = 2. For the H-alpha transition (nupper=3n_\text{upper} = 3), what is the emitted wavelength in nanometers?
