Question

What wavelength photon would be required to ionize a hydrogen atom in the ground state and give the ejected electron a kinetic energy of (1.36x10^1) eV? HINT: Similar to the photoelectric effect, the electron absorbs all of the incident energy. Any leftover energy after ionization will be kinetic energy. Note: Your answer is assumed to be reduced to the highest power possible.
