X-rays with an energy of 300 keV undergo Compton scattering from a target. If the scattered rays are detected at 30 relative to

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

a) $\Delta \lambda = \lambda' -\lambda_o = \frac{h}{m_e c} (1-cos \theta)$

For this case we know the following values:

$h = 6.63 x10^{-34} Js$

$m_e = 9.109 x10^{-31} kg$

$c = 3x10^8 m/s$

$\theta = 37$

So then if we replace we got:

$\Delta \lambda = \frac{6.63x10^{-34} Js}{9.109 x10^{-31} kg *3x10^8 m/s} (1-cos 37) = 4.885x10^{-13} m * \frac{1m}{1x10^{-15} m}= 488.54 fm$

b) $\lambda_0 = \frac{hc}{E_0}$

With $E_0 = 300 k eV= 300000 eV$

And replacing we have:

$\lambda_0 = \frac{1240 x10^{-9} eV m}{300000eV}=4.13 x10^{-12}m = 4.12 pm$

And then the scattered wavelength is given by:

$\lambda ' = \lambda_0 + \Delta \lambda = 4.13 + 0.489 pm = 4.619 pm$

And the energy of the scattered photon is given by:

$E' = \frac{hc}{\lambda'}= \frac{1240x10^{-9} eVm}{4.619x10^{-12} m}=268456.37 eV - 268.46 keV$

c) $E_f = E_0 -E' = 300 -268.456 kev = 31.544 keV$

Explanation

Part a

For this case we can use the Compton shift equation given by:

$\Delta \lambda = \lambda' -\lambda_0 = \frac{h}{m_e c} (1-cos \theta)$

For this case we know the following values:

$h = 6.63 x10^{-34} Js$

$m_e = 9.109 x10^{-31} kg$

$c = 3x10^8 m/s$

$\theta = 37$

So then if we replace we got:

$\Delta \lambda = \frac{6.63x10^{-34} Js}{9.109 x10^{-31} kg *3x10^8 m/s} (1-cos 37) = 4.885x10^{-13} m * \frac{1m}{1x10^{-15} m}= 488.54 fm$

Part b

For this cas we can calculate the wavelength of the phton with this formula:

$\lambda_0 = \frac{hc}{E_0}$

With $E_0 = 300 k eV= 300000 eV$

And replacing we have:

$\lambda_0 = \frac{1240 x10^{-9} eV m}{300000eV}=4.13 x10^{-12}m = 4.12 pm$

And then the scattered wavelength is given by:

$\lambda ' = \lambda_0 + \Delta \lambda = 4.13 + 0.489 pm = 4.619 pm$

And the energy of the scattered photon is given by:

$E' = \frac{hc}{\lambda'}= \frac{1240x10^{-9} eVm}{4.619x10^{-12} m}=268456.37 eV - 268.46 keV$

Part c

For this case we know that all the neergy lost by the photon neds to go into the recoiling electron so then we have this:

$E_f = E_0 -E' = 300 -268.456 kev = 31.544 keV$

A spacecraft in the shape of a long cylinder has a length of 100 m, and its mass with occupants is 1 480 kg. It has strayed too

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

2352645198509.9604 m/s²

Explanation:

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

M = Mass of black hole = $90\times 1.989\times 10^{30}\ kg$

$R_{f}$ = 10000+100 m

$R_{sb}$ = Distance between the nose and the center of the black hole = 10000 m

The difference in the gravitational field in this system is given by

$\Delta F=\dfrac{GMm}{R_{f}^2}-\dfrac{GMm}{R_{sb}^2}\\\Rightarrow \Delta g=GM\left(\frac{1}{R_f^2}-\frac{1}{R_{sb}^2}\right)\\\Rightarrow g=6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 90\times 1.989\times 10^{30}\left(\frac{1}{(10000+100)^2}-\frac{1}{10000^2}\right)\\\Rightarrow \Delta g=-2352645198509.9604\ m/s^2$

The acceleration is 2352645198509.9604 m/s²
