The atom absorbs a photon with a wavelength of 185 nm and then emits a photon with a frequency of 4.9241014HZ . At the end of this series of transitions, the atom will still be in an energy level above the ground state. Draw an energy-level diagram for this process and find the energy of this resulting excited state, assuming that we assign a value of E = 0 to the ground state. (This choice of E = 0 is not the usual convention, but it will simplify the calculations you need to do here.)arrow_forward
