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:

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

What best describes the volcanic process of magma with dissolved water vapor and other gases as it nears the Earth surface?

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Pressure on the molten rock lessens and the gases dissolved in rock can bubble and expand rapidly causing violent eruptions.

A ray of light crosses a boundary between two transparent materials. The medium the ray enters has a larger index of refraction.

Liula [17]

The wavelength of the light decreases as it enters into the medium with the greater index of refraction. The wavelength of the light remains constant as it transitions between materials.

How much energy is used for boiling water in a 4 KW kettle for 20 minutes.

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:About 860,000 results (1.08 seconds)

kettle-power

Jun 18, 2014 — It's interesting to see how much energy heating and cooling systems use ... the kettle uses goes into the water it costs more to use electricity to boil ... 3 minutes is 1/20 of an hour, so 2.4kW for 3 minutes is equivalent to 2.4 / 20 = 0.12kWh. ... kettle should NOT clock over 1kw/h in the 4 minutes it takes to boil
