A large number of neon atoms are in thermal equilibrium. What is the ratio of
the number of atoms in a 5
(a) If a photon and an electron each have the same energy of 20.0 eV, find the wavelength of each. (b) If a photon and an electron each have the same wavelength of 250 nm, find the energy of each. (c) You want to study an organic molecule that is about 250 nm long using either a photon or an electron microscope. Approximately what wavelength should you use, and which probe, the electron or the photon, is likely to damage the molecule the least?
How does the wavelength of a helium ion compare to that of an electron accelerated through the same potential difference? (a) The helium ion has a longer wavelength, because it has greater mass. (b) The helium ion has a shorter wavelength, because it has greater mass. (c) The wavelengths are the same, because the kinetic energy is the same. (d) The wavelengths are the same, because the electric charge is the same.
