Complete these 15 questions by the end of the term. Unlike your
previous problem sets, you will have 5 attempts at each problem and
you will not be penalized for multiple submissions. Instead, your highest
score for each question part will be retained. This is being done because
detailed feedback is not available for these problems as it was on your
past assignments. However, “Read It” will be shown to you so you can
access the portion of the text pertaining to the problem, and when you
click on the answer box, you will also notice that your favorite “Practice
Another Version” button suddenly appears! When entering answers,
enter the numeric value accurate to three signi!cant !gures.

Things around you are emitting infrared radiation that includes the wavelength 1.03 10 m. What is the energy of these IR
photons?
eV
Gamma rays (γ-rays) are high-energy photons. In a certain nuclear reaction, a γ-ray of energy 0.779 MeV (million electronvolts) is
produced. Compute the frequency of such a photon.
Hz
In a typical electron microscope, the momentum of each electron is about 1.3 10 kg-m/s. What is the de Broglie wavelength of
the electrons?

If a proton were traveling the same speed as electrons in a TV picture tube (about 7.0 10 m/s), what would its de Broglie
wavelength be? The mass of a proton is 1.67 10 kg.
