Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of a proton moving at 2.60 x 104 m/s and 1.99 x 108 m/s. (a) 2.60 x 104 m/s m (b) 1.99 x 108 m/s

Characteristic x-rays emitted by manganese have a wavelength of 0.210 nm. What is the energy of one of these x-ray photons? kev

You set up a photoelectric experiment with an unknown metal to eject electrons. You use light of wavelength λ = 670 nm, which just BARELY ejects electrons from the metal. Planck□s constant is either h = 6.63 x 10-34 J-s or h = 4.14 x 10-15 ev.s. a) What is the binding energy of the unknown metal in eV? ev b) You change the light source to one with a wavelength of λ = 310 nm. Using the binding energy you found in the previous step, find the maximum kinetic energy of an electron that is ejected from the metal in Joules. J c) What is the stopping voltage for an electron with the kinetic energy you just found? V
