(a) The rest mass energy of an electron is `m_(0)c^(2)=0.51MeV`. Can a photon of this energy create an electron in free space?
(A) A single photon of energy `2m_(0)c^(2)` or greater has enough energy to form an electron `(e^(-))`. Positron `(e^(+))` pair. But prove that this process cannot occur in free space.
(c) The pair production is possibel in presence of a third particle. Assume that a photon having frequency v collides with a nucleus of rest mass `M_(0)` (at rest) and creates an `e^(-),e^(+)` pair at rest. Calculate the mass `M_(0)` of the nucleus.
Neglect relativistic effect in all questions.

The energy of a photon is given as, `Delta E`/atom `= 3.03 xx 10^(-19)J "atom"^(-1)` then, the wavelength `(lambda)` of the photon is

Correct Answer - C (c) According to formula =, `E=(hc)/(lambda)(v=(c)/(lambda))` Energy E=hv `3.03xx10^(-19)=(hc)/(lambda)` `lambda=(6.63xx10^(-34)xx3.0xx10^(8))/(3.03xx10^(-19))` `=6.56xx10^(-7) m` `=6.56xx10^(-7)xx10^(9)nm` =`6.56xx10^(2) nm` `=656 nm`
