For a free electron with 100 keV kinetic energy, calculate the:
a) electron speed
b) electron momentum
c) de Broglie wavelength of the electron
a) Energy in J = Energy in eV * 1.6 * 10-19 = 100 * 103 * 1.6 * 10-19 = 1.6 * 10-14 J
We have the relation : E = 1/2 * m * v2, where m is mass and v is velocity
We use the above energy and value of m to solve for v:
1.6 * 10-14 = 1/2 * 9.11 * 10-31 * v2
Solving, we get: v = 7.02 * 108 m/s
b) momentum = m * v = 9.11 * 10-31 * 7.02 * 108 = 6.40 * 10-22 kg m/s
c) De broglie waverlength = h / momentum, where h is planck's constant
= 6.625 * 10-34 / (6.40 * 10-22 ) = 1.04 * 10-12 m

For what kinetic energy of a relativistic electron that is treated non-relativistically, the error in calculating the de Broglie wavelength is 1%? Give your answer in keV.
A) If the De Broglie wavelength of an electron is equal to 350 nm calculate the velocity of the electron. Assume that the electron's speed is non-relativistic. B) If the kinetic energy of an electron is 440 eV, calculate its De Broglie wavelength. For this non-relativistic electron you must first calculate its velocity from the general kinetic energy equation. Then you can find the De Broglie wavelength of the electron.
