AP Physics 2
15.3 Emission and Absorption Spectra
15.2 The Bohr Model of Atomic Structure

| Option | Photons in \(n = 4 \to 3 \to 1\) Cascade | Photons in \(n = 4 \to 2 \to 1\) Cascade | Distinct Visible Lines from Sample |
|---|---|---|---|
| (A) | One visible, one ultraviolet | Two ultraviolet | 1 |
| (B) | Two ultraviolet | One visible, one ultraviolet | 3 |
| (C) | One infrared, one visible | One visible, one ultraviolet | 2 |
| (D) | One infrared, one ultraviolet | One visible, one ultraviolet | 2 |
Which row in the table correctly classifies the spectral regions of the emitted photons for the two cascade pathways and gives the total number of distinct visible-light wavelengths emitted by the sample?
