MCQ
If ${\lambda _1}$ and ${\lambda _2}$ are the wavelengths of characteristic $X-$ rays and gamma rays respectively, then the relation between them is
  • A
    ${\lambda _1} = \frac{1}{{{\lambda _2}}}$
  • B
    ${\lambda _1} = {\lambda _2}$
  • ${\lambda _1} > {\lambda _2}$
  • D
    ${\lambda _1} < {\lambda _2}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
${\lambda _1} > {\lambda _2}$
c
(c)In general $X-$ rays have larger wavelength than that of gamma rays.
