Diffraction effects become significant when the width of an aperture is comparable to the wavelength of the waves being diffracted. (a) At what speed will the de Broglie wavelength of a 65-kg student be equal to the 0.76-m width of a doorway? (b) At this speed, how much time will it take the student to travel a distance of 1.0 mm? (For comparison, the age of the universe is approximately 4 * 10^17 s.)
Electrons with an energy of 0.610 eV are incident on a double slit in which the two slits are separated by 60.0 nm.
a) What is the de Broglie wavelength (in nanometers) of these electrons?
b) What is the angle between the two second-order maxima in the resulting interference pattern?
I really appreciate the help on this question. I've been stumped on it.
What are the energy and momentum of a photon of red light of wavelength
620 nanometers (nm)? What is the wavelength (in nm) of photons of energy 2.40 eV?
