an electron is transiting (falling back down towards the nucleus) and is emitting a photon of energy proportional to the transit.
with the formulae i posted, substitute in nf = final ; and ni = initial
so ni=5, and nf=2
then solve algebraically

R, rydberg constant, is 1.097x10^5 /cm
OpenStudy (aaronq):
this is only if it's for a hydrogen atom, it all little different if it's for another element
