Question 40

Multiple Choice

A single slit is illuminated at normal incidence with a parallel beam of light having a wavelength of A single slit is illuminated at normal incidence with a parallel beam of light having a wavelength of   The entire central band of the diffraction pattern is observed at ±90°. The illumination is now replaced by a nonrelativistic beam of electrons, each having a kinetic energy of 980 eV. When this beam hits the slit at normal incidence, at what angle will the first minimum of the electron diffraction pattern occur? (h = 6.626 × 10<sup>-34</sup> J ∙ s, m<sub>el</sub> = 9.11 × 10<sup>-31</sup> kg, 1 eV = 1.60 × 10<sup>-19</sup> J)  A)  0.095 mrad B)  0.071 mrad C)  0.046 mrad D)  0.12 mrad E)  0.14 mrad The entire central band of the diffraction pattern is observed at ±90°.
