Question: an electron with kinetic energy of 500 mev is incident...
Question details
An electron with kinetic energy of 500 MeV is incident on a
nucleus of effective radius 1 fm. (Ignore Coulomb effects in
scattering and just take the nucleus to be an opaque sphere. Find
the angle at which the first minimum in the scattered intensity
would be found. (You can use diffraction from a circular disk. The
energy is relativistic. but the deBroglie relation can be used as
= h/p )
