(i) Nucleus of helium atom is called α-particle. Its symbol is 24 He . It has 4 unit of mass and 2 unit of charge.
214
The source of α-particle was 83 Bi [1]

The energy of α-particles was 5.5 MeV

α-particles, in scattering experiment, were not deviated by electrons due to their little mass. Such little
mass particles cannot appreciably deflect the far more massive α-particles. [1]
(ii) In Lyman series, the electron jumps from any outer orbit to first orbit. The general formula for wavelength
