Question

1) What happens when the x-ray photon scatters from the electron?
-Speed increases, decreases, or stays the same.

2) What happens when the electron is struck by the x-ray photon?

-Its de Broglie wavelength increases, decreases, or stays the same.

3) X-ray diffraction can also change the direction of a beam of x-rays. Which statement offers the best comparison between Compton scattering and x-ray diffraction?

X-ray diffraction changes the wavelength of x-rays; Compton scattering does not Compton scattering changes the speed of x-rays; x-ray diffraction does not X-ray diffraction relies on the particle nature of the x-rays; Compton scattering relies on the wave nature X-ray diffraction relies on the wave nature of the x-rays; Compton scattering relies on the particle nature

Explanation / Answer

The second one increase because the frequency of the X-ray photon decreases. Whereas for part C the Electron de Broglie wavelength decreses as it's struck by scattering X-ray. Thus this allows the electron to gain momentum and increase it's frequency while decreasing it's wavelength.
