Concept explainers

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.

Question

As an excited electron jumps from a higher energy level En to a lower one En
-1), the wavelength (A) of the emitted light would be
O hc/√(En-E(n-1))
O hc/(En - E(n-1))
O hc²/(En-E(n-1))
O hc/(En - E(n-1))²
