A proton with a speed of 0.9 m/s is directed through a double slit with slit separation 0.4mm. An array of detectors is placed 8m away from the slits. How far off axis is the 2nd minimum in the intensity pattern? Group of answer choices 4.4mm 4.4cm 13.2cm 1.32cm none of the above
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.
