Xrays of wavelength 0.0100 nm are directed in the positive direction of an x axis onto a target containing loosely bound electrons. for compton scattering from one of those electrons, at an angle of 180°, what are (a) the compton shift, (b) the corresponding change in photon energy, (c) the kinetic energy of the recoiling electron, and (d) the angle between the positive direction of the x axis and the electron’s direction of motion?

a)  

b)

c)

d)= 0 and the direction of motion is equal to zero

Explanation:

a) compton shift

b) the new wavelength

C)By conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of recoiling electron is equal to the magnitude of energy between the photon energy

d) the angle between the positive direction of motion

             = 0

the direction of motion is equal to zero.

the only real purpose of sputnik 1 was to beat the us into space. we were getting close to launching a useful satellite, explorer 1 - which launched on january 31, 1958. the ussr had to beat that, so they launched sputnik 1 on october 4, 19
