What is the kinetic energy of a 0.01-nm electron in a TEM?
If electron is to be diffracted significantly by a crystal, its wavelength must be about equal to the spacing, d , of crystalline planes. Assuming estimate the potential difference through which an electron must be accelerated from rest if it is to be diffracted by these planes.

X-rays form ionizing radiation that is dangerous to living tissue and undetectable to the human eye. Suppose that a student researcher working in an X-ray diffraction laboratory is accidentally exposed to a fatal dose of radiation. Calculate the temperature increase of the researcher under the following conditions: the energy of X-ray photons is 200 keV and the researcher absorbs photons per each kilogram of body weight during the exposure. Assume that the specific heat of the student’s body is
