A quantum system has three energy levels, so three wavelengths appear in its emission spectrum. the shortest observed wavelength is 278 nm ; light with a 454 nm wavelength is also observed.what is the third wavelength?

Respuesta :

the wavelength emitted is indirectly proportional to the difference in the change in the energy level. For the wavelength 278 nm the change in energy level is significantly high. Further change in energy level is indicated by 454nm light but the difference in energy level for this wavelength to be emitted  is not greater than the previous one. There is a possibility that these subsystems have now very low energy which should result in wavelengths ranging from 700 to 900 nm. There is another possibility that there is some metastable subsystems in the system which may cause LASER emission.

The distance between two successive troughs or crests is known as the wavelength. The third wavelength will range from 700 to 900 nm.

How do you define wavelength?

The distance between two successive troughs or crests is known as the wavelength. The peak of the wave is the highest point, while the trough is the lowest.

The wavelength is also defined as the distance between two locations in a wave that have the same oscillation phase.

The length of a wave is measured in its propagation direction. The wavelength is measured in meters, centimeters, nanometres, and other units since it is a distance measurement.

The wavelength emitted is proportional to the difference in the energy level change. The shift in energy level is large for the wavelength 278 nm. 454nm light indicates a further shift in energy level,

However, the difference in energy level for this wavelength to be emitted is not bigger than the prior one. There is a chance that these subsystems currently have very little energy

Hence the third wavelength will range from 700 to 900 nm.
