Question:
A hydrogen atom is bombarded with electrons accelerated through a potential difference of \( V \), which causes excitation of hydrogen atoms. If the experiment is being performed at \( T = 0 \, \text{K} \), the minimum potential difference needed to observe any Balmer series lines in the emission spectra will be\[\frac{\alpha}{10} V,\]where \( \alpha = \, \underline{\hspace{2cm}} \).
