Problem

Stopping potentials of 24 kV24\,\mathrm{kV}, 100 kV100\,\mathrm{kV}, 110 kV110\,\mathrm{kV}, and 115 kV115\,\mathrm{kV} are measured for photoelectrons emitted from a certain element when it is irradiated with monochromatic X-rays. If this element is used as a target in an X-ray tube, what will be the wavelength of the KαK_\alpha line?
