A beam of electrons is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 0.100 kV and then passes through a thin slit. When viewed far from the slit, the diffracted beam shows its first diffraction minima at+-14.6° from the original direction of the beam. (a) Do we need to use relativity formulas? How do you know? (b) How wide is the slit?
Problem 1: If electromagnetic radiation with a photon energy of 20 meV impinges
on two slits spaced 0.1 mm apart, find the angle between the center line and the 1
minimum and 1 maximum of the resulting interference pattern.
Problem 2: A non-relativistic beam of electrons travels at 5% the speed of light and
impinges on a slit that is 0.05 um wide. Use modern units (e.g eV, etc) to find the
Diffraction effects become significant when the width of an aperture is comparable to the wavelength of the waves being diffracted. (a) At what speed will the de Broglie wavelength of a 65-kg student be equal to the 0.76-m width of a doorway? (b) At this speed, how much time will it take the student to travel a distance of 1.0 mm? (For comparison, the age of the universe is approximately 4 * 10^17 s.)
