An incident X-ray with wavelength 1.5400 Å undergoes Compton
scattering at an angle of 28° relative to its direction of motion.
(i) Determine the wavelength of the scattered X-ray (ii) What is
the momentum of the electron? (iii) Find the wavelength of the
electron.
Asked this question before, but the answer given for part (iii)
isn't making sense to me. Please help.
