Neco 2020 Physics Objective / Multiple Choice Hard Difficulty
Question 3 NECO • 2020 • PHYSICS • objective

Electrons are accelerated from rest through a potential difference of \(150\ \text{V}\) and then strike a thin polycrystalline metal foil. The first‑order diffraction maximum is observed at an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) relative to the incident beam. Using the de Broglie relation and Bragg's law for first order (\(n=1\)), determine the interplanar spacing \(d\) of the crystal in nanometres.
