1/wavelength = R*(1/N1^2 - 1/N2^2)
R is the Rydberg constant and is 1.0973732E7/meter.
Wavelength has the unit of meters. You must change to nanometers. N1 = 3 and N2 = 4
Calculate the wavelength (in nanometers) of a photon emitted by a hydrogen atom when its electron drops from the n = 4 state to the n = 3 state.
