An electric current through an unknown gas produces several distinct wavelengths of visible light. Consider the first order maxima for the wavelengths 403 nm, 428 nm, 511 nm, and 682 nm of this unknown spectrum, when projected with a diffraction grating of 5,000 lines per centimeter. Randomized Variablesλ1 = 403 nm λ2 = 428 nm λ3 = 511 nm λ4 = 682 nm Part (a) What would the angle (in degrees) be for the 403 nm line? Part (b) What would the angle (in degrees) be for the 428 nm line? Part (c) What would the angle (in degrees) be for the 511 nm line?
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.
