In a characteristic X-ray spectra of some atom superimposed on continuous X-ray spectra :

P represents `K_(alpha)` line

Q represents `K_(beta)` line

Q and P represents `K_(alpha)` and `K_(beta)` line respectively

Relative positions of `K_(alpha)` and `K_(beta)` depends on the particle atom

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

`lambda_(K alpha) gt lambda_(K beta)` & `lambda_(K alpha), lambda_(K beta)` are type of atom.

For characteristic X - ray of some material

`E(K_(gamma)) lt E(K_(beta)) lt E(K_(alpha))`

`E(K_(alpha)) lt E(L_(alpha)) lt E(M_(alpha))`

`lambda(K_(gamma)) lt lambda(K_(beta)) lt lambda(K_(alpha))`

`lambda(M_(alpha)) lt lambda(L_(alpha)) lt lambda(K_(alpha))`

transfer of momentum in collision of electrons with target atoms

transition of electrons from higher to lower electronic orbits in an atom

heating of the target

transfer of energy in collision of electrons with atoms in the target

P can represent `L_(alpha)` line

Q represents `L_(alpha)` line

Q and P represent `L_(alpha)andL_(beta)` lines, respectively

Q and P represent `L_(beta)andL_(alpha)` lines, respectively
