While performing research with gaseous hydrogen at a high enough temperature that the H2 molecules have dissociated to H atoms, you notice that atoms in your hydrogen sample are ionized by photons of energy 2.28 eV that are incident on the sample. You wish to determine two things: (a) the minimum value for n for the hydrogen atoms that are being ionized, and (b) the speed of the electrons released in the ionization process when they are far from the atom.
