A wide beam of light from a laser with a wavelength of 525.0 nm is incident on a long narrow opening that is 0.250 mm wide. What will be the width, in mm, of the central maximum on a screen 2.00 m from the opening (i.e what will be the distance between the nodes adjacent to the central maximum?) (Use the small angle approximation.)
Compton effect
The incoming photons' energy must be in the range of an X-ray frequency to generate the Compton effect. The electron does not lose enough energy that reduces the wavelength of scattered photons towards the visible spectrum. As a result, with visible lights, the Compton effect is missing.
Recoil Velocity
The amount of backward thrust or force experienced by a person when he/she shoots a gun in the forward direction is called recoil velocity. This phenomenon always follows the law of conservation of linear momentum.
