Question

Consider an incident beam of 10^4, 2.4 MeV photons on a block of carbon of thickness 3 × 10^23electrons/cm^2(or 5 × 10^22atoms/cm^2). A. The primary interaction between the photon beam and the block of carbon is Compton scattering. What is one way you could determine this? State a useful coefficient for this interaction. B. What is the number of Compton interactions? C. How much energy is diverted from the incident beam? D. Calculate the energy transferred to the kinetic energy of charged particles, and the energy that is scattered. (Hint: these quantities should add to equal the total energy diverted from the incident beam.)

Answer 1

am giving compton explantation:

now just put the value in compton formula and find the answer.
