Open QuestionIn a technique used for surface analysis called Auger electron spectroscopy (AES), electrons are accelerated toward a metal surface. These electrons cause the emissions of secondary electrons—called Auger electrons—from the metal surface. The kinetic energy of the Auger electrons depends on the composition of the surface. The presence of oxygen atoms on the surface results in Auger electrons with a kinetic energy of approximately 506 eV. What is the de Broglie wavelength of one of these electrons? [KE = 1/2mv^2; 1 electron volt (eV) = 1.602 * 10^(-19) J]
Open QuestionIn order for a thermonuclear fusion reaction of two deuterons (2^1H^+) to take place, the deuterons must collide and each must have a velocity of about 1 * 10^6 m/s. Find the wavelength of such a deuteron.
