The positrons emitted from the galactic center can be detected because they annihilate with electrons and emit gamma rays.Two gamma rays are produced in such a situation to conserve both energy and momentum.Suppose the positron and electron,each with energy mc²,convert all of this energy into two identical gamma ray photons.What will be the wavelength of these photons?
A) 1.5 × 10-² nm
B) 2.4 × 10-³ nm
C) 3.9 × 10-⁴ nm
