An electron jumps from the $4^{\text{th}}$ orbit to the $2^{\text{nd}}$ orbit of a hydrogen atom. Given Rydberg's constant $R_{H}=10^7 \ m^{-1}$,calculate the frequency in $Hz$ of the emitted radiation. (Take $c=3 \times 10^8 \ m/s$)

  • A
    $\frac{3}{16} \times 10^{15}$
  • B
    $\frac{9}{16} \times 10^{15}$
  • C
    $\frac{9}{16} \times 10^5$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{16} \times 10^5$
