The constant 'a' Mosely's law sqrt(v) - ...

The constant `'a'` Mosely's law `sqrt(v) - a(Z-b)` for `k_(alpha)X-`rays is related to Rydberg constant R as (`'c'` is the speed of light)

A

`R = (4a^(2))/(3c)`

B

`R = (3c)/(4a)`

C

`R = (3c^(2))/(4)`

D

`R = (2c)/(a)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`(1)/(lambda)=R((1)/(n_(1))-(1)/(n_(2)))Z^(2)`
`(c')/(lambda) = RC((1)/(n_(1))-(1)/(2^(2)))Z^(2)`
For `K_(alpha) rArr v =RC ((1)/(1^(2)) - (1)/(2^(2))) Z^(2)`
`rArr v=(3Rc)/(4)Z^(2)"……"(1)`
& `sqrt(v) = a(z-b)`
`v = a^(2)(z-b)^(2)"……."(2)`
Comparing (1) & (2)
`a^(2) = (3Rc)/(4) rArr R = (4a^(2))/(3c)`

The radiation emitted per unit time by unit area of a black body at temperature T is sigmaT^(4) wehre sigma is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant. The constant sigma can also be expressed in terms of Boltmann's constant (k), Planck's constant (h) and speed of light (3) as sigma=Ak^(alpha)h^(beta)c^(gamma) where A, alpha,beta and gamma are dimensionless constants. The set (alpha,beta,gamma) is givne by

In problems involving electromagenetism it is often convenlent and informative to express answers in terms of a constant, alpha , which is a combination of the Coulomb constant, k_(e) = 1//4piepsi_(0) , the charge of the electron, e, and h = h//2 , h being Planck's constant. For instant, the lowest energy that a hydrogen atom can have is given by E = 1//2 alpha^(2) mc^(2) , wherer m is the mass of the electron and c is the speed of light. Which of the following is the correct expression for alpha ? (HINt : non-relativistic kinetic energy is 1//2 mv^(2) , where v is speed.)

If light passes near a massive object, the gravitational interation causes a bending of the ray. This can be thought of as heappening due to a change in the effective refrative index of the medium given by n(r) =1 +2 GM//rc^2 where r is the distance of the point of consideration from the centre of the mass of the massive body, G is the universal gravitational constant, M the mass of the body and c the speed of light in vacuum. Considering a spherical object find the deviation of the ray form the original path as it graxes the object.

Consider a simple circuit shown in figure stands for a variable resistance R. R can very from R_(0) to infinity. r is internal resistance of the battery (r lt lt R lt lt R_(0) ) .

A famous relation in physics relates 'moving mass' m to the 'rest mass' m_(0) of a particle in terms of its speed v and the speed of light,c. (This relation first arose as a consequence of special relativity due to Albert Einstein). A boy recalls the relation almost correctly but forgets where to put the constant c. He writes: m=(m_(0))/((1-v^(2))^(1//2)) Guess where to put the missing c.

The van der wasl's equation of a gas is (P+(aT^(2))/V) V^(c)=(RT+b) . Where a, b, c and R are constant. If the isotherm is represented by P=AV^(m)-BV^(n) , where A and B depends on temperature:

The van der waal's gas equation is (P+a/V^(2))(V-b)=RT , where P is pressure, V is molar volume and T is the temperature of the given sample of gas. R is called molar gas constant, a and b are called van der waal's constants. The dimensional formula for b is same as that for
