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:

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

You drop two balls from a tower, one of mass m and the other of mass 3m.

neonofarm [45]

The potential energy that the ball has at the top of the tower is its kinetic energy when it hits the ground. The second ball has more potential energy at the top, because you did more work on it to carry it up there. So it has more KE at the bottom. (A)

Two objects, m1 = 0.6 kg and m2 = 4.4 kg undergo a one-dimensional head-on collision

Sidana [21]

a) The velocity after the collision.is 11.456 m/s.

b) The kinetic energy lost due to the collision is 44.564 J.

<h3>What is conservation of momentum principle?</h3>

When two bodies of different masses move together each other and have head on collision, they travel to same or different direction after collision.

The external force is not acting here, so the initial momentum is equal to the final momentum. For inelastic collision, final velocity is the common velocity for both the bodies.

m₁u₁ +m₂u₂ =(m₁ +m₂) v

Given are the two objects, m1 = 0.6 kg and m2 = 4.4 kg undergo a one-dimensional head-on collision. Their initial velocities along the one-dimension path are vi1 = 32.4 m/s [right] and vi2 = 8.6 m/s [left].

(a) Substitute the values, then the final velocity will be

0.6 x32.4 +4.4 x 8.6 = (0.6+4.4)v

v = 11.456 m/s

Thus, the velocity after collision is 11.456 m/s.

(b) Kinetic energy lost due to collision will be the difference between the kinetic energy before and after collision.

= [1/2m₁u₁² +1/2m₂u₂² ] - [1/2(m₁ +m₂) v²]

Substitute the value, we have

= [1/2 x 0.6 x32.4² + 1/2 x4.4 x 8.6²] - [1/2 x(0.6+4.4)11.456²]

= 44.564 J

Thus, the kinetic energy lost due to the collision is 44.564 J.
