Figure A-1

-Refer to the figure above. Suppose that an electron makes a transition from n = 3 to n = 2 and emits a photon of frequency 4 × 10¹⁴ Hz. Then an electron that makes a transition from n = 3 to n = 1 may emit a photon with a frequency of

A) 1 × 10¹⁴ Hz,
B) 3 × 10¹⁴ Hz,
C) 4 × 10¹⁴ Hz,
D) 9 × 10¹⁴ Hz,
Which is consistent with emission of the most energetic photon from a transition from n = 3 to
E) n = 1.
F) n = 2.
G) either, as both transitions are equivalent.
