(a) How many minutes does it take a photon to travel fromthe Sun to the Earth? (b) What is the energy in eV of a photonwith a wavelength of 558 nm? (c) What is the wavelength of aphoton with an energy of 1.00 eV?
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.
