1. The actual energy of electrons follow a poisson distribution, where a large number of electrons have very little amounts of energy while a miniscule number of electrons have a very large amount of energy.
Therefore, the probability of the elections having a large amount of energy is
Therefore, the probability of the elections having a large amount of energy is

2. The rate of scattering is a constant number that determines the average amount of time that is required for an electron to impact a silicon nucleus. It is dependent on two factors:

## The average speed of an electron

## The average distance between 2 Silicon nuclei
