Homework Statement

a proton and an electron initially at rest ,combined to form a hydrogen atom in ground state.A single photon is emitted in this process.The wavelength of the emitted photon is

Homework Equations

E=hc/ λ

The Attempt at a Solution

e

So I know when the system is formed the energy will be released in the form of photons but since they hse only given that electron and proton are at rest ,can I assume they are infinitely separated[/B]
