Electrons go through a single slit 150 nm wide and strike a screen 24.0 cm away. You find that at angles of +/- 20.0 degrees from the center of the diffraction pattern, no electrons hit the screen but electrons hit at all points closer to the center.
(a) How fast were these electrons moving when they went through the slit?
(b) What will be the next larger angles at which no electrons hit the screen?
Electrons go through a single slit 300 nm wide and strike a screen 24.0 cm away. At angles of =+_20.0° from the center of the dif- fraction pattern, no electrons hit the screen, but electrons hit at all points closer to the center. (a) How fast were these electrons moving when they went through the slit? (b) What will be the next pair of larger an- gles at which no electrons hit the screen?
Question 2:
A beam of electrons with kinetic energy K, is incident on a single slit of
width a.
After passing through the slit, the beam strikes a screen where it is made
visible. At the center of the screen directly in front of the slit, the
intensity of the pattern on the screen is I₁.
If the kinetic energy of the beam is increased (keeping the slit width and
the number of electrons per second constant), does the intensity of the
pattern at the center of the screen increase, decrease, or remain the
same?
