An x-ray source generates EM radiation with a wavelength of 45.0 pm (10-12 m). h = c = qelectron = e = 1.602x10-19 C, ke = 8.99x109 N·m2/C2, What is the energy associated with this x-ray wave? What potential difference must be applied to the electrons in the x-ray tube to produce this x-ray? The air gap in the x-ray tube is 30.0 μ How much charge must be present on the plates to create this potential difference for a single electron? What is the force on a single electron when it is at 30.0 μm from the positive plate?
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 lights, the Compton effect is missing.
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.
