The positron created in pair production travels a certain distance and loses all of its kinetic energy. It finally annihilates w

Answer:

In pair production, after the loss of Kinetic energy, the angular separation between the two photons is 180°.

Explanation:

  • Pair production is the process of formation of two electrons, one negative and the other positive (positron), from a pulse of electromagnetic energy traveling through matter.

  • It is a process of direct conversion of radiant energy to matter.

  • The sum of the Kinetic energies of the formed particles amounts to a value of 4 MeV.

  • When the kinetic energy is lost, emission of two photons, each with an energy of approximately 1 MeV in the form of gamma rays takes place ( in opposite direction).

Therefore, the angle of separation between the two photons is 180°.

Radio waves of frequency 1.667 GHzGHz arrive at two telescopes that are connected by a computer to perform interferometry. One p
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Explanation:

The frequency of radio waves is 1.667 GHz

One portion of the same wave front travels 1.260 mm farther than the other before the two signals are combined.

There are two conditions for interference either constructive or destructive.

For constructive interference , the path difference is n times of wavelength and for destructive interference, the path difference is (n+1/2) times of wavelength

We can find wavelength in this case as follows :

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{1.667\times 10^9}\\\\\lambda=0.1799\ m

If we divide path difference by wavelength,

\dfrac{\delta}{\lambda} =\dfrac{1.26}{0.1799}\\\\\dfrac{\delta}{\lambda} =7\\\\\delta =7\lambda

It means that the path difference is 7 times of the wavelength. it means the two waves combine constructively and the value of m for the path difference between the two signals is 7.
