Calculate the energy of an incident photon

Reference no: EM13521436

X-rays with wavelengths of 0.2597 nm are detected at a scattering angle of = 170° in a Compton-scattering experiment. Find

(a) the wavelength of an incident photon,

(b) the energy of an incident photon (in eV),

(d) the kinetic energy of the recoil electron (in eV). (For accuracy, use h = 6.626 x 10-34 J.s and c = 2.998 x 108 m/s.)
