While studying the spectrumn of a gas doud in space, an astronomer magnifies a spectral line
that results from a transition from a p state to an s state, She finds that the line at 575.050
nm has actually split into three lines, with adjacent lines 4.70 x 10- nm apart, indicating
that the gas is in an external magnetic field. (Ignore effects due to electron spin.)
What is the strength of the external magnetic field?
