1) To find the kinetic energy, use the formula =h/mv and then calculate kinetic energy by 1/2mv2.
 = 6.67 x 10-10 = 6.63 x 10-34
                                    ----------------------------------------
                            9.1 x 10-31      x    v
 
which on simplification gives v=0.109 x 107  m/s.
K.E. = 1/2mv2   where m = mass of electron
On putting the values and getting the answer in joule as 
5.4 x 10-19    J , convert it into eV to get 3.38 eV.
 
2) Now,
    as K.E. = kZe2
                   ------
                    2r  
and P.E.= - kZe2  / r
we have P.E.= - 2 K.E.
 
Thus, P.E.= -6.78 eV.
 
3)       Wavenumber
      --------------------------    =   Z2 {1- 1/ 2}
         Rydberg's constant
From this u will get Z=2.
 
Now, E= -13.6 Z2/N2  EV
 
Using this or rydberg's equation, wavelength of photon emitted during the shortest wavelength of transition from the excited state can be found out easily.
