A "soft x-ray" photon with an energy of \(41.8 \mathrm{eV}\) is absorbed by a hydrogen atom in its ground state, knocking the atom's electron out. What is the speed of the electron as it leaves the atom?

A. \(1.84 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)

B. \(3.08 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)

C. \(8.16 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)

D. \(3.15 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)

E. \(3.83 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
