Use only the whole number for the value of atomic mass unit. Express your answer in proper scientific notation.arrow_forwardPlease provide Given, Required, and Solution. Thanks!arrow_forwardI am struggling with getting this question done and need some help solving it, explain and make sure the answer is 100% correct. When a fast electron (i.e., one moving at a relativistic speed) passes by a heavy atom, it interacts with the atom's electric field. As a result, the electron's kinetic energy is reduced; the electron slows down. In the meantime, a photon of light is emitted. The kinetic energy lost by the electron equals the energy Eγ�� of a photon of radiated light: Eγ=K−K′��=�−�′, where K� and K′�′ are the kinetic energies of the electron before and after radiation, respectively. This kind of radiation is called bremsstrahlung radiation, which in German means "braking radiation" or "deceleration radiation." The highest energy of a radiated photon corresponds to the moment when the electron is completely stopped. Part A.

Isotope masses are listed in AMU (atomic mass unit) and value of AMU is given in Physical Constants section below this document together with other physical constants. An ionizing laser is directed onto the lead block under test such that the ionized atoms (or isotopes) leaves the lead block with an initial kinetic energy of 1 eV. The direction is conically upward but sure that the cone is larger than the entrance hole to the accelerator section. The ionized isotopes are in form. That is only a single electron is missing in lead ions. The number of ionized isotopes entering into the accelerator region corresponds to a ion current. These ions are accelerated with a constant DC voltage in the acceleration chamber which is in the form of two parallel metal plates that have a hole in both bottom and top. Then the ions enter to velocity selector region. In this region both electric and magnetic fields are applied. Next…arrow_forwardGamma rays (?-rays) are high-energy photons.
