Question 8 (carries 7 marks) (a) In a Compton Effect experiment, a photon (λ = 4 x 10-¹0 m) strikes an electron at rest and rebounds at an angle of 120° to its original collision. Find the speed and wavelength of the photon after collision. (4 marks) (b) What wavelength of light does a hydrogen atom emit as its excited electron falls from the n = 3 state to the n = 2 state?
