Problem

An electron is accelerated through a potential difference of 150 V before it strikes a nickel crystal whose interplanar spacing is 0.091 nm. (i) Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of the electron, giving your answer to two significant figures. (ii) State whether first-order diffraction from these planes is likely to be observed. a. (i) Calculate the de Broglie wavelength. b. (ii) State whether first-order diffraction is likely.
