An electron is moving under the influence of the electric field of a uniformly charged infinite plane sheet $S$ having surface charge density $+\sigma$. The electron at $t=0$ is at a distance of $1 \,m$ from $S$ and has a speed of $1 \,m/s$. The maximum value of $\sigma$ if the electron strikes $S$ at $t=1 \,s$ is $\alpha \left[ \frac{m \epsilon_0}{e} \right] \,C/m^2$. The value of $\alpha$ is:
