प्रश्न
Identify the electromagnetic wave whose wavelength range is from about 10-12 m to about 10-8 m. Write one use of this.
उत्तर
Electromagnetic waves of wavelengths range 10-12 m < λ < 10-8 m are known as X-rays. These are utilised in medicine as diagnostic instruments, as well as in scientific research and crystallography.

Characteristic X-rays may be used to identify the element from which they are being emitted. Can continuous X-rays be used for this purpose?
One of the following wavelengths is absent and the rest are present in the X-rays coming from a Coolidge tube. Which one is the absent wavelength?
Continuous X-rays are made to strike a tissue paper soaked with polluted water. The incoming X-rays excite the atoms of the sample by knocking out the electrons from the inner shells. Characteristic X-rays are analysed and the intensity is plotted against the wavelength. Assuming that only Kα intensities are detected, list the elements present in the sample from the plot. Use Moseley's equation v − (25 × 1014Hz)(Z − 1)2.
