If the photon of wavelength pm strikes an atom and one of its inner bound electron is ejected out with a velocity of ,& what is the energy with which it is bound to the nucleus?
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
Total energy of any photon is given by the relation :
Where, Planck's constant
Velocity of light
wavelength i.e, \left(150pm\right)E = \dfrac{hc}{λ} = \dfrac{6 . 6 \times {10}^{- 34} \times 3 \times {10}^{8}}{1 . 5 \times {10}^{- 10}}; E = 1 . 32 \times {10}^{- 15}J
,
where,
mass of electron
velocity of electron
Thus, total energy of photon = Binding energy of electron
\left(B\right)
Thus, 1 . 32 \times {10}^{- 15} = \left(B\right) + \left( E\right)∴ \left(B\right) = \left( E\right) - \left(E^{'}\right) = \left[1 . 32 \times {10}^{- 15}\right] - \left[1 . 024 \times {10}^{- 16}\right]
eV = 7 . 6 \times {10}^{3}eV
