Answer

(a) $80.6KeV$ (b) $80.6KV$

Work Step by Step

(a) We know that $K_{min}=|E_k|=13.6\frac{(78-1)^2}{1}eV$ $\implies K_{min}=(13.6)(77)^2$ $K_{min}=80.6KeV$ (b) We know that $K=Ve$ This can be rearranged as: $V=\frac{K}{e}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $V=\frac{80.6\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}$ $V=80.6KV$
