Solution
We have `bar(v) = 109766 [1/n_i^2 - 1/n_f^2]`
Given, ni = 3 and nf =2
ΔE = `hcbar(v) = 109677 [1/n_i^2 - 1/n_f^2]`
ΔE = `- 3.052 xx 10^-19` J
v = `(ΔE)/h -= 4.606 xx 10^16` Hz

The binding energy of a H-atom, considering an electron moving around a fixed nuclei (proton), is B = `- (Me^4)/(8n^2ε_0^2h^2)`. (m = electron mass). If one decides to work in a frame of reference where the electron is at rest, the proton would be moving around it. By similar arguments, the binding energy would be
B = `- (Me^4)/(8n^2ε_0^2h^2)` (M = proton mass)

The mass of a H-atom is less than the sum of the masses of a proton and electron. Why is this?
The inverse square law in electrostatics is |F| = `e^2/((4πε_0).r^2)` for the force between an electron and a proton. The `(1/r)` dependence of |F| can be understood in quantum theory as being due to the fact that the ‘particle’ of light (photon) is massless. If photons had a mass mp, force would be modified to |F| = `e^2/((4πε_0)r^2) [1/r^2 + λ/r]`, exp (– λr) where λ = mpc/h and h = `h/(2π)`. Estimate the change in the ground state energy of a H-atom if mp were 10-6 times the mass of an electron.
