According to the Bohr model of the atom, an electron undergoes a transition from one orbit that is closer to the nucleus to another which is farther from the nucleus by absorbing a photon whose energy E depends on its frequency f as E = hf, where h is Planck's constant. The energy of 13.6 eV is needed to ionize a hydrogen atom by ejecting an electron from the lowest energy level. What is the longest wavelength of a photon that can eject the electron from the lowest energy level of the atom?
