The "seeing" ability or resolution of radiation is determined by its wavelength. If the size of an atom is approximately 1.3 × 10^?10 m, how fast must an electron travel to have a wavelength smaller than that of an atom? (me = 9.11 × 10^?31 kg and h = 6.63 × 10^?34 J?s)

a. 5.6E+6 m/s b. 5.1E+7 m/s c. 8.4E+5 m/s d. 9.5E+6 m/s e. 2.4E+3 m/s
