18 (i) In microwave oven, molecules of food item 1

start to vibrate with the frequency of
microwave. But the natural frequency of
2
water molecules matches with microwave
frequency which causes resonance (more
amplitude) which further causes increase in
temperature.
(ii) The ultra-violet light coming out of the
1
welding arc is harmful to eyes. The special
glass goggles absorb the ultra-violet light
and thus save the eyes from the harmful
effect of ultra-violet light.

26 (a) Second excited state to first excited state ½

means n=3 to n=2 which represents Hα
liner in Ballmer series.

(b) The most energetic spectral line in any

series corresponds to the transition from the
highest energy level (ni = ∞) to the lowest
energy level (nf).
- For the Balmer series, the transition is
from ni = ∞ to nf = 2.- For the Paschen
3
series, the transition is from ni = ∞ to nf = 3.

The Rydberg formula for the wavelength (λ) ½

of the spectral lines is given by: ½

wavelengths of the
Balmer series to the Paschen series:
