**Physics Problem: Calculating the Wavelength of a Photon**

**Question:**  
What is the wavelength in meters of a photon generated by an electron going from \( n = (8.00 \times 10^0) \) to \( n = (4.000 \times 10^0) \)? Answer to 3 significant figures and in scientific notation. Sorry about the two n values, I can either do scientific notation need for the answer or you have to enter the answer without scientific notation. I can't change between them.

**Note:** Your answer is assumed to be reduced to the highest power possible.

**Answer Section:**

\[
\text{Your Answer:} \quad \text{[ ]} \times 10^{\text{[ ]}} \, \text{units}
\]

---

**Explanation:**

This physics problem requires determining the wavelength of a photon emitted when an electron transitions between two energy levels, denoted by \( n \). The calculation should be completed using significant figures and expressed in scientific notation, ensuring the answer is reduced to the highest power possible.
