Atomic Physics Problem No. 3

Atomic Physics (Problem No. 3) An isolated atom of a certain element emits light of wavelength 520 nm when the atom falls from its fifth excited state into its second excited state. The atom emits a photon of wavelength 410 nm when it drops from its sixth excited state into its second excited state. Find the wavelength of the light radiated when the atom makes a transition from its sixth to its fifth excited state. Reference PHYSICS for Scientists and Engineers with Modern Physics Raymond A.
