Question

Compton effect and its physical significance

Answer 1

hello dear.....

Compton scattering is an example of inelastic scattering of light by a free charged particle, where the wavelength of the scattered light is different from that of the incident radiation. ... The effect is significant because it demonstrates that light cannot be explained purely as a wave phenomenon.


i hope help u....☺☺☺☺☺

Answer 2

HEY USER HERE IS YOUR ANSWER :-
__________
___________________
>>>> Compton scattering effect was discovered by Arthur Holly Compton , it is the scattering of a photon by a charged particle , usually an electron .
It results in a decrease in energy ( increase in wavelength ) of the photon which may be an X-RAY or gamma Ray photon ) , called the COMPTON EFFECT .
Part of the energy of the photon is transferred to the recoiling electron .
# Compton scattering is of prime importance to radiobiology .
# In material physics , Compton scattering can be used to probe the wave function of the electron in matter in the momentum representation .
