Energy liberated in the de-excitation of hydrogen atom from 3rd level to 1st level falls on a photo - cathode. Later when the same photo-cathode is exposed to a spectrum of some unknown hydrogen like gas, excited to 2nd energy level, it is found that the de-Broglie wavelength of the fastest photoelectron, now ejected has decreased by a factor of 3. For this new gas, difference of energies of 2nd Lyman line and 1st Balmer line is found to be 3 times the ionization potential of the hydrogen atom. Select the correct statement(s):

Q5
Energy liberated in the de-excitation of hydrogen from $$4^{th}$$ energy level to the first level falls on a photocathode. Later when the same photo-cathode is exposed to a spectrum of some unknown hydrogen-like gas, excited to the $$3^{rd}$$ energy level, it is found that the de Broglie wavelength of the fastest photoelectrons now ejected has decreased by factor of $$3$$. For this new hydrogen like samples difference of $$3rd$$ energy level and its first energy level is $$8$$ times of the ionization energy of $$H-atom$$ . Select the correct answers.
