The momentum of a particular proton is
20
5.5 10 kg m s
-
¥ i . Relativistic effects can be ignored throughout this
question.
(a) Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of the proton.
(b) Calculate the kinetic energy of the proton.
The proton is directed toward a very distant stationary uranium nucleus,
235
92
U . The proton reaches a distance D
from the center of the nucleus and then reverses direction. Assume that the nucleus is heavy enough to remain
stationary during the interaction.
(c) Calculate the value of D.
I have no idea how to do part C please help
