प्रश्न

The X-ray coming from a Coolidge tube has a cutoff wavelength of 80 pm. Find the kinetic energy of the electrons hitting the target.

(Use Planck constant h = 6.63 × 10-34 Js= 4.14 × 10-15 eVs, speed of light c = 3 × 108 m/s.)

उत्तर

Given:-

Cutoff wavelength of the Coolidge tube, `lambda = 80  "pm"`

Energy of the electron hitting the target (E) is given by

`E = (hc)/lambda`

Here,
h = Planck's constant
c = Speed of light
λ = Wavelength of light

`therefore E = (1242  "eV"-"nm")/(80 xx 10^-3)`

`⇒ E = (1242 xx 10^-9  "eV")/(80 xx 10^-12)`

`⇒ E = 15.525 xx 10^3  "eV" ≈ 15.5  "keV"`

In an atom X, electrons absorb the energy from an external source. This energy “excites” the electrons from a lower-energy level to a higher-energy level around the nucleus of the atom. When electrons return to the ground state, they emit photons.

The figure below is the energy level diagram of atom X with three energy levels, E1 = 0.00eV, E2 = 1.78eV and E3 = 2.95eV. The ground state is considered 0 eV for reference. The transition of electrons takes place between levels E1 and E2.

  1. What wavelength of radiation is needed to excite the atom to energy level E2 from E1?
  2. Suppose the external source has a power of 100 W. What would be the rate of photon emission?
