To find the wavelength of the `L_alpha` line using the given wavelengths of the `K_alpha` and `K_beta` lines, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between the energies of the lines The energies of the X-ray lines are related as follows: - The energy of the `L_alpha` line is equal to the energy of the `K_beta` line minus the energy of the `K_alpha` line. ### Step 2: Write the formula for energy in terms of wavelength The energy \( E \) of a photon can be expressed using the formula: ...
