A hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from an excited state to the ground state by emitting a photon. The energy difference between the excited state and the ground state is 2.04 eV. The wavelength of the emitted photon is measured to be 656 nm. Calculate the frequency and the energy of the emitted photon in Joules. (Note: You may use the following conversions: 1 eV = 1.6 x 10^-19 J and the speed of light, c = 3.0

The first screenshot displays the question, and the second screenshot displays the section of the book that's relevant to the problem. So far, there have been two incorrect answers given: a.) 2.82 x e^-(1.51 x 10^12), and b.) (1.60*10^-19)^-(2.04*10^11) If someone can solve this problem, it would be deeply appreciated!

A particle has γ=2,865. a) Calculate c-v in m/s. If your calculator gives problems, you might want to solve the appropriate equation for c-v or c(1 - v/c) and use an approximation. b) In the previous problem, in a race to the moon, by 3/4ths the distance, light is one or ten meters ahead of the particle. We routinely approximate mass as zero, gamma as infinite, and speed as the speed of light. ("Massless particles" -- gamma and m have to be eliminated from the expressions. Light is a true massless particle.) If a massless particle has momentum 2,910 MeV/c, calculate its energy in MeV.
Calculate the speed (in m/s) of an electron and a proton with a kinetic energy of 1.15 electron volt (eV). (The electron and proton masses are me = 9.11 ✕ 10−31 kg and mp = 1.67 ✕ 10−27 kg.

All of the stars of the Big Dipper (part of the constellation Ursa Major) may appear to be the same distance from the earth, but in fact they are very far from each other. Figure shows the distances from the earth to each of these stars. The distances are given in light-years (ly), the distance that light travels in one year. One light-year equals 9.461 * 1015 m.

An astronomical unit (AU) is equal to the average distance from Earth to the Sun, about 92.9 × 106 mi. A parsec (pc) is the distance at which a length of 1 AU would subtend an angle of exactly 1 second of arc (the figure). A light-year (ly) is the distance that light, traveling through a vacuum with a speed of 186000 mi/s, would cover in 1.0 year. Express the Earth–Sun distance in (a) parsecs and (b) light-years.
