They are pumped across the mitochondrial inner membrane against their concentration gradient (to where their concentration is high); as the H+ ions flow back to where their concentration is low, they drive ATP synthase to form ATP

Rydberg formula is given by:

$\frac{1}{\lambda } = R_{H}\times (\frac{1}{n_{1}^{2}}-\frac{1}{n_{2}^{2}} )$

where, $R_{H}$ = Rydberg constant = $1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} per metre$

$\lambda$ = wavelength

$n_{1}$ and $n_{2}$ are the level of transitions.

Now, for $n_{1}$ = 2 and $n_{2}$ = 6

$\frac{1}{\lambda} = 1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times (\frac{1}{2^{2}}-\frac{1}{6^{2}} )$

= $1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times (\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{36} )$

= $1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times (0.25-0.0278 )$

= $1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times 0.23$

= $0.2523958\times 10^{7}$

$\lambda = \frac{1}{0.2523958\times 10^{7}}$

= $3.9620\times 10^{-7} m$

= $396.20\times 10^{-9} m$

= $396.20 nm$

Now, for $n_{1}$ = 2 and $n_{2}$ = 5

$\frac{1}{\lambda} = 1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times (\frac{1}{2^{2}}-\frac{1}{5^{2}} )$

= $1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times (0.25-0.04 )$

= $1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times (0.21 )$

= $0.230 \times 10^{7}$

$\lambda= \frac{1}{0.230 \times 10^{7}}$

= $4.3478 \times 10^{-7} m$

= $434.78\times 10^{-9} m$

= $434.78 nm$

Now, for $n_{1}$ = 2 and $n_{2}$ = 4

$\frac{1}{\lambda} = 1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times (\frac{1}{2^{2}}-\frac{1}{4^{2}} )$

= $1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times (0.25-0.0625 )$

= $1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times (0.1875 )$

= $0.20575 \times 10^{7}$

$\lambda= \frac{1}{0.20575 \times 10^{7}}$

= $4.8602 \times 10^{-7} m$

= $486.02 \times 10^{-9} m$

= $486.02 nm$

Now, for $n_{1}$ = 2 and $n_{2}$ = 3

$\frac{1}{\lambda} = 1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times (\frac{1}{2^{2}}-\frac{1}{3^{2}} )$

= $1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times (0.25-0.12 )$

= $1.0973731568508 \times 10^{7} \times (0.13 )$

= $0.1426585\times 10^{7}$

$\lambda= \frac{1}{0.1426585\times 10^{7}}$

= $7.0097 \times 10^{-7} m$

= $700.97 \times 10^{-9} m$

= $700.97 nm$
