To find the absorption coefficient for Aluminium when X-rays of wavelength 0.5 Å pass through a 10 mm thick sheet and their intensity is reduced to one sixth, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We are given the initial intensity \( I_0 \) and the final intensity \( I \) after passing through the material. The final intensity is one sixth of the initial intensity, which can be expressed as: \[ I = \frac{I_0}{6} \] ...
