Element	Ne	P	Ca	Mn	Zn	Br
Energy (keV)	0.858	2.14	4.02	6.51	9.57	13.3

Answer

$\text{K}_\text{B}$ radiation is when the e jumps from
n = 3 to n = 1 (here n is principal quantum no)
$\Delta\text{E}=\text{hv}=\text{Rhc(z-h)}^2\Big(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2}\Big)$
$\sqrt{\text{v}}=\sqrt{\frac{9\text{RC}}{8}}(\text{z}-\text{h})$
$\therefore\sqrt{\text{v}}\propto\text{z}$
Second method :
We can directly get value of v b
hv = Energy
$\Rightarrow\text{v}=\frac{\text{Energy(in Kev)}}{\text{h}}$
This we have to find out $\sqrt{\text{v}}$ and draw the same graph as above.

Figure shows a metallic wire of resistance $0.20\Omega$ sliding on a horizontal, U-shaped metallic rail. The separation between the parallel arms is 20cm. An electric current of $2.0\mu\text{A}$ passes through the wire when it is slid at a rate of $20cms^{-1}$.

Continuous X-rays are made to strike a tissue paper soaked with polluted water. The incoming X-rays excite the atoms of the sample by knocking out the electrons from the inner shells. Characteristic X-rays are analysed and the intensity is plotted against the wavelength. Assuming that only $\text{K}_\alpha$ intensities are detected, list the elements present in the sample from the plot. Use Moseley's equation $v - (25 \times 10^{14}Hz)(Z - 1)^2.$
