Detailed Solution

According to Bohr’s quantization of angular momentum, the stationary orbits are those in which angular momentum of electron
is an integral multiple of h2πi.e.,
mvr=nh2π Where, n=1,2,3
For Brackett series,
1λmin=n=1sinC 1λmin=R16v=ze220nv=e220
Where,
R= Rydberg constant =1.096×107m1
      λmin    =161.096×107m    =14.599×107         =14599
Brackett series is found in infrared region 106Å to 7000 of electromagnetic spectrum.
OR
For hydrogen atom z=1 and n=1
Velocity of electron,
v=ze220nv=e220
Therefore, v=c137, where , c is velocity of light.
Orbital period 
= Distance  Velocity =2πrc×137=2×3.14×5.29×1011×1373×103=1.517×1016sec
