The high-energy photons can undergo Compton scattering off electrons in the tumor. The energy imparted by a photon is a maximum when the photon scatters straight back from the electron. In this process, what is the maximum energy that a photon with the energy described in the passage can give to an electron? (a) 3.8 MeV; (b) 2.0 MeV; (c) 0.40 MeV; (d) 0.23 MeV.
15.(a)What is the frequency of an x-ray photon whose momentum is 1.1x 1023 kg m/s? (b) How much energy must a photon have if it is to have the momentum of a 10-MeV proton?
