According to Planck's quantum theory of light, every source of radiation emits photons (i.e., packets of energy ) which travel in all directions with the same speed (i.e., speed of light). Each photon is of energy E=hv=hc//lambda , where h is Planck's constant, v is the frequency and lambda is wavelength of radiation emitted. The photons emitted from different sources of radiation are different. Read the above passage and answer the following questions: (i) on what factors does the number of photons emitted per second from a source of radiations depends? (ii) Why are the high energy photons not vissible to eye? (iii) Which basic values do you learn from this study?

A gamma - ray photon is emitted

Name the high frequency radiation produced in nuclear reactions and also emitted by radioactive nuclei that is used in medicine to destroy cancer cells.

[A] : Endomixis is Paramecium involves total internal nuclear reorganisation within a single individual . [R] : It takes place in the absence of conjugation.

in cases of hydrogen atom, whenever a photon is emitted in the Balmer series, (a)there is a probability emitting another photon in the Lyman series (b) there is a probability of emitting another photon of wavelength 1213 Å (c ) the wavelength of radiaton emitted in Lyman series is always shorter then the wavelength emitted in the Balmer series (d) All of the above.
