Hydrogen \(({ }_1 \mathrm{H}^1)\), Deuterium \(({ }_1 \mathrm{H}^2)\), singly ionised Helium \(({ }_2 \mathrm{He}^4)^+\) and doubly ionised lithium \(({ }_3 \mathrm{Li}^6)^{++}\) all have one electron around the nucleus. Consider an electron transition from \(n=2 \) to \(n=1 \). If the wavelengths of emitted radiation are \(\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3\) and \(\lambda_4\) respectively then approximately which one of the following is correct?
1. \( \lambda_1=2 \lambda_2=2 \lambda_3=\lambda_4 \)
2. \( \lambda_1=\lambda_2=4 \lambda_3=9 \lambda_4 \)
