Study Notes
De Broglie Wavelength
- The ratio of the de Broglie wavelength of an electron and the wavelength of a photon with the same energy (E) is given by:
- c(2mE)^1/2
- Where:
- c is the speed of light
- m is the mass of the electron
- E is the energy
Photoelectric Effect
- A beam of electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of 310 nm and intensity of 6.4 × 10-5 W/cm2 falls on a metal surface.
- The metal has a work function of 2 eV.
- Every 103 photons eject one electron.
- The number of electrons ejected per second is 10x.
Atomic Spectra and Energy Levels
- The hydrogen atom has energy levels corresponding to different electron orbits.
- Transitions between these levels result in the emission or absorption of photons.
- The Balmer series corresponds to transitions to the n = 2 level.
- The first member of the Balmer series has a wavelength of 6561 Å.
- The wavelength of the second member of the Balmer series is 486.1 nm.
Electron in an Electric Field
- An electron with initial velocity v0iˆ + v0 ˆj is placed in an electric field −E0kˆ.
- Its initial de Broglie wavelength is λ0.
- The de Broglie wavelength at time t is given by: λ0/(1+(eEt/m v0^2))^1/2.
- Where:
- e is the electron charge
- E is the electric field strength
- m is the electron mass
- t is the time
- v0 is the initial velocity
