An atom in an l=1 state emits a photon of wavelength 500.000 nm as it drops to an l=0 state when there is no external magnetic field.
a)Calculate the Zeeman effect splitting (in electron volts) between adjacent energy levels when this atom is placed in an external3.00-Tmagnetic field. (eV)
b) List the wavelengths of the 3 spectral lines that could be observed with a high-resolution spectrographas a result of the interaction of the atom with the B field. Hint: you may use |dE/E| = |dλ/λ|.Find λ1λ2λ3 in nm. Use 6 sig figs for each.
c) Draw an energy diagram showing the 3 different transitions responsible for λ1λ2 and λ
