Hey
I have this problem
A source which emits a line at 500nm is found to exhibit the normal Zeeman effect
when placed in a magnetic field. Calculate the magnetic field given that the separation
of adjacent components in the Zeeman pattern is 12.0pm.
I have this equation from my textbook
ΔE = μbBgmj
I am assuming that I need to use the fact given about the distance of the components in the pattern to find ΔE and then rearrange for B, but I am not sure how to do that.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
