  • A
    Photographic plates are sensitive to infrared rays
  • B
    Photographic plates are sensitive to ultraviolet rays
  • C
    Infrared rays are invisible but can cast shadows like visible light
  • Infrared photons have more energy than photons of visible light

Answer

Correct option: D.
Infrared photons have more energy than photons of visible light
d
(d)

Infrared photons have less frequency than visible light. Hence, they have less energy.

From a carbon nanotube of $1 \,\mu m$ length and $1 \,nm$ radius. $10$ electrons have been removed. Assume the resulting positive charge to be distributed umforrnly over the surface of the tube. The energy of an electron moving in a stable circular orbit around the axis along the length of the tube is calculated by applying the Bohr model. Accordingly, the frequency of radiation required to excite an electron from its ground state to the next level is in the range of (charge of the electron, $e =1.60 \times 10^{-19} \,C$; mass of the electron, $m _{ e }=9.11 \times 10^{-31} \,kg$; Planck's constant, $h =6.63 \times 10^{-34} \,Js$; Permittivity of free space, $\left.\varepsilon_0=8.85 \times 10^{-12}\,F / m \right)$
