$A$ parallel beam of electrons travelling in $x-$ direction falls on a slit of width $d$. If after passing the slit,an electron acquires momentum $P_y$ in the $y-$ direction,then for a majority of electrons passing through the slit ($h$ is Planck's constant):

In the Davisson-Germer experiment,an electron beam of energy $75 \ eV$ falls normally on the surface of a crystal. If the maximum intensity is obtained at an angle of $45^o$ to the direction of the incident beam,then the inter-atomic distance in the lattice plane of the crystal will be .............. $\mathring{A}$
