Math Problem Statement
Calculate the wavelength of the photon emitted when an electron makes a transition from n=6�=6 to n=3�=3. You can make use of the following constants:
h=6.626×10−34 J⋅sℎ=6.626×10−34 J⋅s
c=2.998×108 m/s�=2.998×108 m/s
1 m=109 nm1 m=109 nm
Express your answer to four significant figures and include the appropriate units.
