Angstrom formula

This is one of the equations you were provided with on the AP formula sheet. The units for c are ms-1. Wavelengths are usually expressed in nanometers (nm) or angstroms (A). The AP test has used nanometers in the past. Frequencies are expressed in reciprocal seconds (s-1). Problems typically provide one of the variables and ask for the other. 

Angstrom measured the wavelengths of the specttal lines of hydrogen, but Balmer showed that the wavelengths of these spectral lines are not arbitrary rather, the value of the wavelengths are the expression of one particular mathematical formula. Balmer s work illustrates the hierarchy of values for physicists discovering an underlying order in measured numbers often counts for more than the measurements themselves.

For sodium light (D line, 5890 Angstroms wave length) the specific rotation [a] is calculated by the use of the following formula, applicable to solutions of pure liquids and compounds ... 

The third parameter line contains the following information the first number is the wavelength of the used radiation in angstroms, the second, third and fourth quantities represent the molecular weight of the formula unit in atomic mass units (a.m.u.), the measured density in g/cm and the error in the measured density, respectively. The defaults are set at zero meaning that none of these characteristics of the material is known.

Except for a small additive constant difference in the frequencies, the classical theory and the quantum theory both lead to essentially the same results in this case each gives a system of equidistant lines in the emission and absorption spectrum. This is the simplest case of the empirical band formula first found by Deslandres. It is easy to see that these lines are to be sought for in the infra-red. In the case of HC1, for instance, the light H atom of mass 1 65 X 10 gm. essentially rotates about the much heavier Cl atom at a distance of the order of magnitude of all molecular separations, say a Angstrom units or a. 10-8 cm., a being of the order of 1. The moment of inertia will then be...
