Explanation The wavelength of the light must be comparable to its atomic diameters in order to observe the diffraction pattern. The visible light fails to fulfill this criterion as its wavelength is much more than the wavelength of the X-rays. Therefore, diffraction effects with crystals cannot be observed using visible light...

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 ligh…

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.
