11.34 The wavelength of a probe is roughly a measure of the size of a structure that it can probe in some detail. The quark structure of protons and neutrons appears at the minute length-scale of 10–15 m or less. This structure was first probed in early 1970’s using high energy electron beams produced by a linear accelerator at Stanford, USA. Guess what might have been the order of energy of these electron beams. (Rest mass energy of electron = 0.511 MeV.)

    11.34 Wavelength of a proton or a neutron, λ 10 - 15 m

    Rest mass energy of an electron: m 0 c 2 = 0.511 MeV = 0.511 × 10 6  eV

    = 0.511 × 10 6 × 1.6 × 10 - 19  J

    m 0 c = 8.176 × 10 - 14 J

    Planck’s constant, h = 6.626 × 10 - 34 Js

    Speed of light, c = 3 × 10 8  m/s

    The momentum of a proton or a neutron is given as:

    p = h λ  = 6.626 × 10 - 34 10 - 15  = 6.626 × 10 - 19  kgm/s

    The relativistic relation for energy (e) is given as:

    E 2 = p 2 c 2 + m 0 2 c 2

    = ( 6.626 × 10 - 19 ) 2 × ( 3 × 10 8 ) 2 + ( 8.176 × 10 - 14 ) 2

    = 4.390 × 10 - 37 × 9 × 10 16  + 6.684 × 10 - 27

    =3.951 × 10 - 20

    E = 1.988 × 10 - 10  J = 1.988 × 10 - 10 1.6 × 10 - 19  eV = 1.242 × 10 9  eV = 1.242 BeV

z² × (13.6) (1 - ¼) = 3 × (13.6)
z = 2 . (i)
h/√2mk? = (1/2.3) × h/√2mk?
=> k? = (2.3)²k? = 5.25k? (ii)
Now, k? = E? - Φ
k? = E? - Φ = z²E? - Φ
∴ k? /k? = (10.2 - Φ)/ (4 × 10.2 - Φ) = 1/5.25
=> Φ = 3eV

hu = hu0 + K.E

Cases u = 2u0

h2u0 = hu0 + K.E1

K.E1 = hu0

1 2 m v 1 2 = h υ 0

v 1 2 = 2 h υ 0 m  

v 1 = 2 h υ 0 m - (1)      

Now, cases 2

h 5u0 = hu0 + k.E2

k.E2 = 4hu0

1 2 m v 2 2 = 4 h υ 0

v2 =     8 h υ 0 m   - (2)

v 2 v 1 = 8 2 = 2          

v2 = 2v1
