The wavelengths corresponding to the first four spectral lines of the Lyman series of the $H$-atom are $\lambda = 1218 \, \mathring{A}, 1028 \, \mathring{A}, 974.3 \, \mathring{A}$,and $951.4 \, \mathring{A}$. Now,consider a deuterium atom instead of a hydrogen atom. Given the mass of the hydrogen atom is $1.6725 \times 10^{-27} \, kg$,the mass of the deuterium atom is $3.3374 \times 10^{-27} \, kg$,and the mass of the electron is $9.109 \times 10^{-31} \, kg$,calculate the percentage change in the wavelength of the first spectral line of the Lyman series for the deuterium atom relative to the hydrogen atom.

If an electron in a hydrogen atom jumps from an orbit of level $n=3$ to an orbit of level $n=2$,the emitted radiation has a frequency ($R=$ Rydberg constant,$C=$ velocity of light).

Which series of the hydrogen atom lie in the infrared region?

Assertion : Balmer series lies in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Reason : $\frac{1}{\lambda} = R \left[ \frac{1}{2^2} - \frac{1}{n^2} \right]$,where $n = 3, 4, 5, \dots$

For the wavelength of visible radiation of the Hydrogen spectrum, Balmer gave an equation as $\lambda = \frac{xm^2}{m^2 - 4}$, where $m$ is an integer value. The value of $x$ in terms of Rydberg's constant $R$ is
