What would the wavelength in m of the emitted radiation be if a hydrogen atom was placed in an external uniform magnetic field of 240 T and transitioned from a spin-up to a spin-down state?
The Ka x-ray line for any element arises because of atransition between the K shell (n = 1) and the L shell (n = 2).this line (for a molybdenum target)occurring at a single wavelength. With higher resolution, however,the line splits into several wavelength components becausethe L shell does not have a unique energy. (a) How many componentsdoes the Ka line have? (b) Similarly, how many componentsdoes the Kb line have?
Is the angular momentum of alpha-particles in Rutherford scattering conserved?
