An electron, traveling at a speed of 9.00 x 107 m/s, strikes the target of an X-ray tube. Upon impact, the electron decelerates to one-quarter of its original speed, an X-ray photon being emitted in the process. What is the wavelength of the photon?
2.67 x 10-11 m
3.76 x 10-11 m
2.88 x 10-11 m
5.34 x 10-11 m
5.75 x 10-11 m
A neutron of mass 1.675 × 10-27 kg has a de Broglie wavelength of 7.8x10-12 m. What is the kinetic energy (in eV) of this non-relativistic neutron? Please give your answer with two decimal places.
1 eV = 1.60 × 10-19 J, h = 6.626 × 10-34 J ∙ s.
