An electron in a stationary hydrogen atom jumps from the $4^{\text{th}}$ energy level to the ground level. The velocity that the photon acquired as a result of the electron transition will be ($h=$ Planck's constant,$R=$ Rydberg's constant,$m=$ mass of the photon).

  • A
    $\frac{11 R h}{16 m}$
  • B
    $\frac{15 R h}{16 m}$
  • C
    $\frac{9 R h}{16 m}$
  • D
    $\frac{13 R h}{16 m}$
