    The energy of an X-ray photon is 2 keV, then its Frequency will be:

    A)  \[3.2\times {{10}^{-6}}\] Per sec             

    B)  \[5\times {{10}^{17}}\,Per\,\sec \]

    C)  \[2\times {{10}^{17}}\,Per\,\sec \]         

    D)  \[2\times {{10}^{18}}\,Per\,\sec \]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    For the most favorable collision in which the electron loses, the whole of its energy in a single collision with the target atom, an \[\text{X}-\text{ray}\]photon of maximum energy \[hv\] is emitted \[E=hv\] Where \[h\] is Planck?s constant and\[v\] is frequency. Given, \[E=2\,\,ke\,V=2\times {{10}^{3}}\times 1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}\,J\] \[\Rightarrow \]                               \[v=\frac{E}{h}=\frac{2\times {{10}^{3}}\times 1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}}{6.6\times {{10}^{-34}}}\]                                                 \[=9.84\times {{10}^{17}}\]                                                 \[=5\times {{10}^{17}}/s\] Note: Since, energy \[\propto \] frequency, higher the frequency.
