The absorption spectrum of the hydrogen atom shows lines at 5334, 7804, 9145, 9953, and 10,478 cm

Question:

The absorption spectrum of the hydrogen atom shows lines at 5334, 7804, 9145, 9953, and 10,478 cm−1. There are no lower-frequency lines in the spectrum. Use the graphical methods discussed in Example Problem 22.6 to determine ninitial and the ionization energy of the hydrogen atom in this state. Assume values for ninitial of 1, 2, and 3.
