The stopping potential in a photoelectric experiment is linearly related to the inverse of the wavelength (1/λ) of the light falling on the cathode. The potential difference applied across an X-ray tube is linearly related to the inverse of the cutoff wavelength (1/λ) of the X-ray emitted. Show that the slopes of the lines in the two cases are equal and find its value.
(Use Planck constant h = 6.63 × 10-34 Js= 4.14 × 10-15 eVs, speed of light c = 3 × 108 m/s.)

उत्तर
V0 - Stopping Potential
K - Potential difference across X-ray tube
λ - Wavelength
λ - Cut difference Wavelength
`eV_0 = hf - hf_0`
`lambda = (hc)/(eV)`
`eV_0 = (hc)/lambda`
or ` Vlambda = (hc)/e`
or `V_0lambda = (hc)/e`
Here, the slopes are same.
i.e. V0λ = Vλ
`(hc)/e = (6.63 xx 10^-34 xx 3 xx 10^8)/(1.6 xx 10^-19)`
= `1.242 xx 10^-6 "Vm"`

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.
