Answer :
Given:
Wavelength, λ = 1285 nm
Frequency, v = 3.29 × 1015 [1/32 – 1/n2] (Hz)
Speed of Light = [Frequency] × [Wavelength]
We know speed of light = 3×108 m/s
Frequency, v = [3×108] / [1285 × 10-9]
v = 2.3346×1014 Hz
3.29 × 1015 [1/32 – 1/n2] = 2.3346×1014
[1/32 – 1/n2] = [2.3346×1014] / [3.29 × 1015]
[1/32 – 1/n2] = 0.07427
[1/9] – 0.07427 = 1/n2
1/n2 = 0.04
1/n2 = 1 / 25
n2 = 25
n = 5
The value of n is 5.
