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

I NEED HELP ASAP IM ON TIMER !!!!!!!!
White raven [17]

Answer:

F

Explanation:

The average velocity is the ratio of total displacement and time.The average speed is the ratio of total distance and time.Therefore the average speed and average velocity are equal if the total displacement is equal to the total distance that is if the body travels along a straight line without changing the direction.

Explain newton's second law in terms of inertia?​
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Newton's second law is F=ma. And since inertia is the resistance an object has against a change in velocity or force, you must push a lot harder to start moving an object, but once it starts to move, it is a lot easier, until you go to stop it.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS QUESTION!
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer: Top left to bottom right, top right to bottom left

Explanation:

A linear position time graph means a horizontal line on the velocity graph so top left matches the bottom right

With the process of elimination, bottom left matches the top right
