Step 1

Interpretation - To calculate the energy of the photon emitted for each of the observed lines (based on its wavelength).

 

Relation between energy of a photon and wavelength is given by- 

E = hcλ -----(1)where h =plank's constant =  6.626 x 10-34 J.s c = speed of light = 3.0 ×108 m/sλ = wavelength of light
