initial final 20 2' 2 e Figure 2: For problem 2. This problem is about Compton scattering. Recall that from applying the principles of conservation of energy and momentum, we can derive h X' - λ = (1 - cost)) (1) mec where A is the wavelength of the incoming photon, A' is the wavelength of the outgoing photon and is the scatter angle of the outgoing photon. Suppose we have a photon with intial wavelength A scattering off a stationary electron. In the final state, the photon now has wavelength X' and has a scatter- ing angle of 0. The electron has a scattering angle of (refer to Fig.2). Suppose that A-A= 2h mec a) (5 points) Find 0. b) (15 points) Find o. Note: you can find a numerical value for with the information provided. If you're not sure how to do so, you can leave your answer in terms of X, X', and the speed of the electron for partial credit.
