To solve the problem of calculating the wavelength of radiation emitted when an electron transitions from the third orbit to the ground state in a hydrogen atom, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the initial and final states The electron is initially in the third orbit (n=3) and transitions to the ground state (n=1). ### Step 2: Calculate the energy levels Using the formula for the energy of an electron in a Bohr orbit: \[ ...
