How do I derive the Rydberg constant from the Bohr Formula from the plank-einstein relation Ephoton=hf?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I currently have the following E = Einitial - Efinal Ephoton = hc / lambda

OpenStudy (aravindg):

hmm . ..nic qn w8 lemme think ovr it

OpenStudy (aravindg):

seems u need to equate lambda

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ther is an amguity in rydberg const...it can mean the const coming in hydrogen spectra or in the energy of orbits equation..

Hello may I help here?

OpenStudy (fretje):

@shayaan_Mustafa yes i think you may

according to bohr's formula energy released, when an eletron makes a transition from a higher energy level n2 to lower energy level n1, is given by\[E=R \left( 1/n1^{2} -1/n2^{2}\right)\] where r is rydberg constant.. At the same time the energy of photon released during the process is given by E= hf Equalise the two values of energy.. if values of n1, n2, and f is known R can be obtained easily..
