x-ray radiation falls in the wavelength region of 1.00e-11 to 1.00e-8 meters. what is the energy of x-ray radiation that has a wavelength of 8.39e-10 m?



Answer :

The energy of the X-ray radiation will be 2.36 x 10⁻¹⁶ Joules.

The X-ray radiations fall under the wavelength range of 10⁻¹¹ m to 10⁻⁸ m.

Provided to us is the X-ray radiation of wavelength 8.39 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

For calculating the energy of the radiation we first need to calculate the frequency of the X-ray radiation

We know that frequency = speed of light / wavelength

 Ʋ   = c / λ

                            Ʋ  = 3 x 10⁸ / 8.39 x 10⁻¹⁰

 Ʋ = 0.357 x 10¹⁸

Now we know that the energy can be written as

 E = h Ʋ

Where h = planck's constant and has a value of 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js

therefore ,

 The energy of the radiation is

 E= 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴  x  0.357 x 10¹⁸

 E = 2.36 x 10⁻¹⁶ J
