If an electron is to be diffracted significantly by a crystal, its wavelength must be about equal to the spacing, d, of crystalline planes. Assuming d = 0.350 nm, estimate the potential difference through which an electron must be accelerated from rest if it is to be diffracted by these planes
An electron's position is known with an uncertainty of 1.0 × 10^(-9) meters. Calculate the minimum uncertainty in its momentum, assuming the minimum uncertainty principle holds.
Assume hydrogen atoms in a gas are initially in theirground state. If free electrons with kinetic energy 12.75 eVcollide with these atoms, what photon wavelengths will beemitted by the gas?
