Determine the wavelength of the photons

Reference no: EM13304837

A positron emission tomography (PET) scanner examines the gamma rays emitted when positrons and electrons annihilate each other. Since the mass of both the electron and positron is 511 keV/c2, two 511-keV photons are generated. What is the wavelength of the photons. Answer in pm.
