The energy of the electromagetic wave is of the order of `15` keV. To which part of the spectrum dose it belong?

A

`gamma`-rays

B

X-rays

C

Infra-red rays

D

Ultraviolet rays

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`E=15keV=15xx10^(3)xxeV`
`becauseE=(12400)/(lamda)eV`Å
`lamda=(12400)/(E)eV`Å
`lamda=(12400)/(15xx10^(3)eV)eV` Å
`lamda=.826`Å`(lamda lt 0.01`Å)
It is part of X-rays.
