To solve the problem of determining the wavelength and frequency of the photon absorbed by a hydrogen atom transitioning from the ground state (n=1) to the excited state (n=4), we can follow these steps:
### Step 1: Calculate the Energy of the Photon
The energy of the photon absorbed by the hydrogen atom can be calculated using the formula:
\[
E = E_{n2} - E_{n1}
\]
