This is greater than the speed of light! Electromagnetic attraction is unable
to keep the electron confined in the nucleus of an atom.

The positions for lines in the emission and absorption spectrum for
the same element are the exactly the same.
This is expected as these are the transitions between the SAME
two energy levels.

Any other lines in this series must start with ni = 7 or higher and thus
represent a larger energy difference. These photons carry more
energy and will have a shorter wavelength than visible light, e.g.
ultra-violet (UV)
