Why do orbitals of hydrogen atom have same energy? If we take $p$ and $s$ orbitals, they are located at slightly different distances from the nucleus. So ideally there must be an energy difference. Moreover, if energy is same, why have two distinct orbitals? P.s I am a highschool sophomore. Pleases use simple terms.
