question mark

The absorption of energy by an atom of hydrogen in ground state,results in the ejection of the electron with the de Broglie wavelength = 4.7 * 10^-10 m. Given that the ionization energy is 13.6 ev, Calculate the energy of the photon which caused the ejection of electron

the energy of photon is equal to ionisation energy plus energy of emeted electron
therefore the answer is 13.6+p^2/2m
=13.6+h^2/2mL^2( lis wave lenth)
on substuting the values we get aswer as 40.2eV.
hope it clears.
