EBK STUDENT SOLUTIONS MANUAL WITH STUDY, Chapter 27, Problem 27P

The figure shows the situation before and after the scattering process.

The Compton shift formula is,

λ'λ=hmec(1cos180°)=2hmec

    • λ0 is the wavelength of the x-ray
    • h is the Plank’s constant
    • c is the speed of the light
    • me is the mass of the electron

Substitute 0.110nm for λ , 6.63×1034J.s for h , 9.11×1031kg for me and 3.00×108m/s for c .

λ'=(0.110nm)(109m1nm)+2(6.63×1034J.s)(9.11×1031kg)(3.00×108m/s)=0.115nm

The momentum of the recoiling electron is,

pe=p+p'

    • p is the momentum of the incident photon
    • p' is the momentum of the scattered photon

pe=hλ+hλ'

Substitute 0.110nm for λ , 0.115nm for λ' , 6.63×1034J.s for h and 3.00×108m/s for c .

pe=(6.63×1034J.s)(1(0.110nm)(109m1nm)+1(0.115nm)(109m1nm))=1.18×1023kg.m/s

Conclusion:

Thus, the momentum of the electron is 1.18×1023kg.m/s .

Answer to Problem 27P

The kinetic energy of the electron is 478eV .

Explanation of Solution

The kinetic energy of the electron is,

KE=pe22me

Substitute 1.18×1023kg.m/s for pe and 9.11×1031kg for me .

KE=(1.18×1023kg.m/s)22(9.11×1031kg)(1eV1.60×1019J)=478eV

Conclusion:

Thus, the kinetic energy of the electron is 478eV

as a hiker in glacier national park, you need to keep the bears from getting at your food supply. You find a campground that is near an outcropping of ice. Part of the outcropping forms a feta=51.5* slopeup that leads to a verticle cliff. You decide that this is an idea place to hang your food supply out of bear reach. You put all of your food into a burlap sack, tie a rope to the sack, and then tie a bag full of rocks to the other end of the rope to act as an anchor. You currently have 18.5 kg of food left for the rest of your trip, so you put 18.5 kg of rocks in the anchor bag to balance it out. what happens when you lower the food bag over the edge and let go of the anchor bag? Determine the acceleration magnitude a of the two-bag system when you let go of the anchor bag?
