What role dose infra-red radiation play in maintain the Earth’s warmth
Advertisements
उत्तर
Visible light from the atmosphere is absorbed by the Earth’s surface and radiated as infrared radiation which gets trapped by greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and water vapour. This is how infrared radiation also plays an important role in maintaining the Earth’s warmth

The energy of a photon of a characteristic X-ray from a Coolidge tube comes from
The figure shows the intensity-wavelength relations of X-rays coming from two different Coolidge tubes. The solid curve represents the relation for the tube A in which the potential difference between the target and the filament is VA and the atomic number of the target material is ZA. These quantities are VB and ZB for the other tube. Then,
For a given material, the energy and wavelength of characteristic X-rays satisfy
(a) E(Kα) > E(Kβ) > E(Kγ)
