electrons are accelerated through a potential difference of 40.4 V and then shot through a thin slice of a crystal lattice, which acts like a double slit. A fluorescent screen 9.98 m behind the lattice lights up where the electron strikes, and you see a diffraction pattern. If the distance between the "slits" is 3.96 nm and the screen is large enough, how many maxima appear on the screen? As you did last time, give an integer answer. (If your answer is 124.999, give the answer as 124.)
