[mass of He nucleus = $4.002 \mathrm{amu}, 1 \mathrm{amu}=1.66 \times 10^{-27} \mathrm{~kg}, \mathrm{~h}=6.6 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{~J}. \mathrm{s}$ and $\mathrm{c}=3 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ ]
The work function of a metal is 4.2 eV. The threshold wavelength for photoelectric emission is approximately:
For a certain metal, when monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$ is incident, the stopping potential for photoelectrons is $3V_0$. When the same metal is illuminated by light of wavelength $2\lambda$, then the stopping potential becomes $V_0$. The threshold wavelength for photoelectric emission for the given metal is $\alpha\lambda$. The value of $\alpha$ is _______.
