    Ka wavelength emitted by an atom of atomic number Z = 11 is l. Find the atomic number for an atom that emits Ka radiation with wavelength 4l            [IIT-JEE (Screening) 2005]

    A)            Z = 6                                         

    B)            Z = 4

    C)            Z = 11                                      

    D)            Z = 44

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                       \[\sqrt{{{f}_{1}}}=\sqrt{\frac{v}{{{\lambda }_{1}}}}=a\left( 11-1 \right)\] and \[\sqrt{{{f}_{2}}}=\sqrt{\frac{v}{{{\lambda }_{2}}}}=a\left( Z-1 \right)\]                    By dividing, \[\sqrt{\frac{{{\lambda }_{2}}}{{{\lambda }_{1}}}}=\frac{10}{Z-1}\]Þ\[\sqrt{\frac{4}{1}}=\frac{10}{Z-1}\]Þ Z = 6
