E = energy in the light rays
    = h ν = h c /λ
    = 6.67 * 10×⁻³⁴ * 3 * 10⁸ / (5.84*10⁻⁸) J
    = 3.42 * 10⁻18 J
Kinetic energy of electrons 
    = 1/2 m u^2 
    = 1/2 * 9.1 * 10⁻³¹ * (2.45  * 10⁶)²  J
    = 2.73 * 10⁻¹⁸ J

    The ionization energy = (3.42 - 2.73) * 10⁻¹⁸ J
               = 6.9 * 10⁻¹⁹ J
