Question

Tyrone analyzes the emission spectrum of an unknown element. He observes two discrete lines at 600 nm and 650 nm, and he sees many lines corresponding to shorter wavelengths, with the strongest line being at 475 nm. Which emission spectrum is Tyrone most likely analyzing?

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Tyrone is basically analyzing a low frequency because the human the human eyes are sensitive to green colour which has a wavelength of 500nm that is close to that of 486nm

Since frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength from wave equation

v = f λ.

f = v / λ

So, he is basically analyzing the highest wavelength which is 650nm.

Thus, we can conclude that the colours near the red are of the same wavelength as 656nm.
