Please explain in an in-depth answer with steps. I already have the answer but I don't understand it.
A proton and an electron have the same de Broglie wavelength. How do their speeds compare?
I am struggling with getting this question done and need some help solving it, explain and make sure the answer is 100% correct.
When a fast electron (i.e., one moving at a relativistic speed) passes by a heavy atom, it interacts with the atom's electric field. As a result, the electron's kinetic energy is reduced; the electron slows down. In the meantime, a photon of light is emitted. The kinetic energy lost by the electron equals the energy E� of a photon of radiated light:
Eγ=K−K′��=�−�′,
where K� and K′�′ are the kinetic energies of the electron before and after radiation, respectively.
This kind of radiation is called bremsstrahlung radiation, which in German means "braking radiation" or "deceleration radiation." The highest energy of a radiated photon corresponds to the moment when the electron is completely stopped.
