  • question_answer
    Which of the following statement is not correct  [AFMC 1999]

    A)            Photographic plates are sensitive to infrared rays

    B)            Photographic plates are sensitive to ultraviolet rays

    C)            Infra-red rays are invisible but can cast shadows like visible light

    D)            Infrared photons have more energy than photons of visible light

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

               \[E\propto \frac{1}{\lambda };\] also \[{{\lambda }_{\text{infrared}}}>{{\lambda }_{\text{visible}}}\] so  \[{{E}_{\text{infrared}}}<{{E}_{\text{visible}}}\]
