Mosley measured the frequency `(f)` of the characteristic `X` - rays from many metals of different atomic number `(Z)` and represented his results by a relation known as Mosley's law. This law is (`a , b` are constants )

A

`f=a(Z-b)^(2)`

B

`Z=a(f-b)^(2)`

C

`f^(2)=a(Z-b)`

D

`f=a(Z-b)^(1//2)`
