Question
Suppose in an imaginary world the angular momentum is quantized to be even integral multiples of $\frac{\text{h}}{2\pi}$ What is the longest possible wavelength emitted by hydrogen atoms in visible range in such a world according to Bohr's model?

Answer

Even quantum numbers are allowed,
$\text{n}_1=2,\text{n}_2=4\xrightarrow{\ \ \ }$ For minimum energy or for longest possible wavelength.
$\text{E}=13.6\bigg(\frac{1}{\text{n}^2_1}-\frac{1}{\text{n}^2_2}\bigg)$
$\text{E}=13.6\Big(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{4^2}\Big)=2.55$
$2.55=\frac{\text{hc}}{\lambda}$
$\lambda=\frac{\text{hc}}{2.55}=\frac{1242}{2.55}$
$\lambda=487.05\text{nm}=487\text{nm}$

Electric field intensity at any point is the strength of the electric field at that point. It is also defined as the force experienced by unit positive charge placed at that point. Electric Field Intensity is a vector quantity. It is denoted by E. When placed within the electric field, the test charge will experience an electric force - either attractive or repulsive.
