Name the parts of the electromagnetic spectrum which is
used as a diagnostic tool in medicine.
Write in brief, how these waves can be produced.
A plane electromagnetic wave travels in the vacuum along the z-direction. What can you say about the directions of its electric and magnetic field vectors? If the frequency of the wave is 30 MHz, what is its wavelength?
Give a reason for the following:
It is necessary to use satellites for long-distance TV transmission. Why?
Name the radiations of wavelength shorter than 4 × 10−7 m.
Name two electromagnetic waves of frequency smaller than that of violet light. State one use of each.
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.
(Use Planck constant h = 6.63 × 10-34 Js= 4.14 × 10-15 eVs, speed of light c = 3 × 108 m/s.)
