Which one of the following statements is WRONG in the context of X-rays generated from a X-ray tube?
A radioactive sample S1 having an activity 5µCi has twice the number of nuclei as another sample S2 which has an activity of 10 µCi. The half lives of S1 and S2 can be
Photoelectric effect experiments are performed using three different metal plates p, q and r having work functions φp = 2.0 eV, φq = 2.5 eV and φr = 3.0 eV, respectively. A light beam containing wavelengths of 550 nm, 450 nm and 350 nm with equal intensities illuminates each of the plates. The correct I-V graph for the experiment is [Take hc = 1240 eV nm]
The wavelength of the first spectral line in the Balmer series of hydrogen atom is 6561 A°. The wavelength of the second spectral line in the Balmer series of singly-ionized helium atom is
A pulse of light of duration 100 ns is absorbed completely by a small object initially at rest. Power of the pulse is 30 mW and the speed of light is 3×108 ms–1. The final momentum of the object is
If λCu is the wavelength of Kα X-ray line of copper (atomic number 29) and λMo is the wavelength of the Kα X-ray line of molybdenum (atomic number 42), then the ratio λCu/λMo is close to
A metal surface is illuminat ed by light of two different wavelengths 248 nm and 310 nm. The maximum speeds of the photoelectrons corresponding to these wavelengths are u1 and u2, respectively. If the ratio u1 : u2 = 2 : 1 and hc = 1240 eV nm, the work function of the metal is nearly
In a historical experiment to determine Planck's constant, a metal surface was irradiated with light of different wavelengths. The emitted photoelectron energies were measured by applying a stopping potential. The relevant data for the wavelength (λ) of incident light and the corresponding stopping potential (V0) are given below :
Given that c = 3 × 108m s–1 and e = 1.6 × 10–19 C , Planck's constant (in units of J s) found from such an experiment is
The electrostatic energy of Z protons uniformly distributed throughout a spherical nucleus of radius R is given by
The measured masses of the neutron are 1.008665 u, 1.007825 u, 15.000109 u and 15.003065 u, respectively. Given that the radii of both the nuclei are same, 1 u = 931.5 Me V/c2 (c is the speed of light) and e2/(4 πε0) = 1.44 MeV fm. Assuming that the difference between the binding energies of is purely due to the electrostatic energy, the radius of either of the nuclei is (1 fm = 10–15 m)
An accident in a nuclear labora tory resulted in deposition of a certain amount of radioactive material of half-life 18 days inside the laboratory. Tests revealed that the radiation was 64 times more than the permissible level required for safe operation of the laboratory. What is the minimum number of days after which the laboratory can be considered safe for use?
