If you know that the energy required to remove an electron from a metal surface is 3.54 ev. A monochromatic light with a wavelength of 4000 angstroms was projected onto the surface. Will electrons be emitted from the surface of this metal?
When x - rays of wavelength of 0.129 nm are incident on the surface of a crystal having a structure similar to that of NaCl, a first - order maximum is observed at 8.15°. Calculate the interplanar spacing of the crystal based on this information.
A CD-ROM is used instead of a crystal in an electron diffraction experiment. The surface of the CD-ROM has tracks of tiny pits with a uniform spacing of 1.60 mm. (a) If the speed of the electrons is 1.26 X 104 m/s, at which values of q will the m = 1 and m = 2 intensity maxima appear? (b) The scattered electrons in these maxima strike at normal incidence a piece of photographic film that is 50.0 cm from the CD-ROM. What is the spacing on the film between these maxima?
