(a) If a photon and an electron each have the same energy of 20.0 eV, find the wavelength of each.
(b) If a photon and an electron each have the same wavelength of 250 nm, find the energy of each.
(c) You want to study an organic molecule that is about 250 nm long using either a photon or an electron microscope. Approximately what wavelength should you use and which probe, the electron or the photon, is likely to damage the molecule the least?
The de Broglie wavelength of an electron has to do with spatial resolution of an electron microscope, which is often expressed in the unit of length Å (Angstrom).
The 1 V potential difference causes an electron to gain kinetic energy EK of 1 electron Volt (eV). In the SI units, kinetic energy in eV must be converted to Joules.
The conversion factor is 1 eV = 1.6 x 10-19 Joule.
And, the formula for the wavelength is:
λ = h / p = h / √(2 m EK)
where m is electron mass.
Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of an electron (in Å) when the electron is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of:
a) 1 kV = 1,000 V (a low resolution setting of microscope),
b) 10 kV = 10,000 V (intermediate resolution).
c) 100 kV = 100,000 V (high resolution),
The boy walked in the evening in the park with the flashlight with a power of 20 W . The flashlight bulb is monochromatic and emits photons with a wavelength 590 nm . When the boy came home, he took out a light bulb from the flashlight, connected it to the battery, and placed it in front of a sheet of paper with the dimensions 20cm×30cm at a distance of 1.2 m from it.
a) How many photons per second fall on a piece of paper? To complete the first step, you need to find the ratio A between the area of a sheet of paper and the surface area of a sphere with a radius of 1.2 m .
b) If you stand 17 mm from this bulb, how many photons enter each of your eyes per second? Assume your pupil is 5.0 mmmm in diameter and that the bulb radiates uniformly in all directions.
