In the Compton Effect,a Photon of Wavelength $\lambda$ And Frequency F Is Scattered from an Electron

question 4

Multiple Choice

In the Compton effect,a photon of wavelength $\lambda$ and frequency f is scattered from an electron.Initially,at rest

• A) the electron gains energy from the photon so that the scattered photon's wave length is less than \(\lambda\).
• B) the electron gives energy to the scattered photon so the photon's frequency is greater than f.
• C) momentum is not conserved,but energy is conserved.
• D) the photon loses energy so that the scattered photon has a frequency less than f.
