1- Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of an electron that travels with 5.0 x 105 m/s. Also, calculate the de Broglie wavelength of a ball with a mass of 50 g traveling with 50 Km/h. Explain why we don't observe wave-particle duality in our macroscopic world using the results
Compton effect
The incoming photons' energy must be in the range of an X-ray frequency to generate the Compton effect. The electron does not lose enough energy that reduces the wavelength of scattered photons towards the visible spectrum. As a result, with visible lights, the Compton effect is missing.
Recoil Velocity
The amount of backward thrust or force experienced by a person when he/she shoots a gun in the forward direction is called recoil velocity. This phenomenon always follows the law of conservation of linear momentum.
