    How Does the Compton Effect Explain Photon-Electron Collisions?

    Ahhh nevermind! I just realized that angle is 180degrees. *slaps forehead*

    How Does the Compton Effect Explain Photon-Electron Collisions?

    In the Compton effect, a 0.100nm photon strikes a free electron in a head-on collision and knocks it into the forward direction. The rebounding of the photon recoils it directly backward. Use conservation of (relativistic) energy and momentum to determine: a) the kinetic energy of the electron...
