p= sqrt (KE*m*2)
= sqrt(505*1.602E-19*9.11E-31*2)
then
lambda= plancks constant/p
The presence of oxygen atoms on the surface results in auger electrons with a kinetic energy of approximately 505 eV.
What is the de Broglie wavelength of this electron?
[KE= (1/2)mv^2; 1 electron volt (eV) = 1.602*10^-19 J]
