The correct Answer is:
C

In the present case ,Path diffrence between matter waves diffracted from the onsecutive atomic layers of targer element,separated by perpendiular distance d is equal to 2dsin`theta` (where `theta`=angle of diffraction).
Now ,as per the statement,for no.Of electrons getting diffracted at angle `theta` to become maximum,value of matter wavelength of moving electrons.`lambda` should be such that it can satisfy the condition of constructive interference.
Thus ,2din `theta lambda`
`therefore` 2din `theta=n((h)/(sqrt(2Vem)))`
`implies` As V increases, sin`theta` decreases and so `theta` will also decrease.
Second method:
In Dacisson-Germer experiment let voltage applied to andoe is V.De-Broglie wavelength assocaited wth electron,
`lambda=(12.27)/(sqrt(V))Å`.......(1)
For electron diffracted at angle `theta` condition for central maximum `lambda-2dsintheta`.......(2)
From equation (1) if V increase then `lambda` will decrease and from equation (2) in `lambda` decrease then `theta` will also decrease.
(For samll angle of diffraction sin`theta~~theta`).

Wave property of electron implies that they will show diffraction effected . Davisson and Germer demonstrated this by diffracting electron from crystals .

(a) Obtain the de Broglie wavelength of a neutron of kinetic energy 150 eV. As you have seen in Exercise 11.31, an electron beam of this energy is suitable for crystal diffraction experiments. Would a neutron beam of the same energy be equally suitable? Explain.

Hence explain why a fast neutron beam needs to be thermalised with the environment before it can be used for neutron diffraction experiments.

Light guidance in an optical fiber can be understood by considering a structure comprising of thin solid glass cylinder of refractive index n_(1) surrounded by a medium of lower refractive index n_(2) .

A circus wishes to develop a new clown act. Fig. (1) shows a diagram of the proposed setup. A clown will be shot out of a cannot with velocity v_(0) at a trajectory that makes an angle theta=45^(@) with the ground. At this angile, the clown will travell a maximum horizontal distance. The cannot will accelerate the clown by applying a constant force of 10, 000N over a very short time of 0.24s . The height above the ground at which the clown begins his trajectory is 10m . A large hoop is to be suspended from the celling by a massless cable at just the right place so that the clown will be able to dive through it when he reaches a maximum height above the ground. After passing through the hoop he will then continue on his trajectory until arriving at the safety net. Fig (2) shows a graph of the vertical component of the clown's velocity as a function of time between the cannon and the hoop. Since the velocity depends on the mass of the particular clown performing the act, the graph shows data for serveral different masses. If the angle the cannot makes with the horiaontal is increased from 45^(@) , the hoop will have to be
