Question # 9

Bohr's theory of hydrogen atom is based upon several assumptions.Do any of these assumptions contradict classical physics?

Ans 1: Bohr's first assumptions contradicts classical physics.Bohr said that electron do not radiate energy during revolving while according to classical physics,electron radiate energy during revolving and fall into the nucleus which is impossible.

Question # 10

What is meant by line spectrum? How line spectrum can be used for the identification of elements?

Ans 1: When an electron jumps from higher energy state to lower energy state than emits energy and make a spectral line.
E₂- E₁_=hf
_{This is called line spectrum.And different elements emit line spectrum of different wavelengths,So they can be identifiedeasily.}

Question # 1

What is CAT scanner?

Ans 1: A vastly improved x-rays technique is computerized axial tomography: the corresponding instrument is called CAT scanner.In CAT scanning a number of different orientations.Computer is attached to construct picture,Density difference of the order of one percent can be detected,Tumors and other anomalies much too small to be seen with older techniques can be detected.

Question # 2

In which region of electromagnetic spectrum does the following series fall (a)Lyman series (b)Balmer series?

Ans 1: Balmer series falls in the visible region.
Lyman series falls in the ultraviolet region.

Question # 3

Write two properties of x-rays.

Ans 1:
1. They cause ionization.
2. They have very short wavelength.

Question # 4

Define continuous spectrum.

Ans 1: The radiation emitted by continuous media such as ''Black Body" forms a continuous spectrum,In continuousspectrum wavelengths of radiations can not be observed in discrete lines.

Question # 5

Bohr's theory of hydrogen atom is based upon several assumptions.Do any of these assumptions contradict classical physics?

Ans 1: Bohr's first assumptions contradicts classical physics.Bohr said that electron do not radiate energy during revolving while according to classical physics,electron radiate energy during revolving and fall into the nucleus which is impossible.

Question # 7

Can x-rays be reflected,diffracted polarized just like any other eaves?Explain

Ans 1: Yes x rays can be reflected,refracted diffracted by crystal only and polarized just like any other waves.

Question # 8

Write down use of laser in industry.

Ans 1: It can be used for telecommunication in fibre optics.
It is used to read bar codes,
It is used to generate 3D image of objects by holography.

Question # 9

Distinguished between stimulated emission and spontaneous emission.

Ans 1: Stimulated emission: If a atom is excited for a longer lifetime of about 10^-3sec than an incident photon of energy equal to the difference of two energy levels induces the atom to decay by emitting a photon that travel in the direction of incident photon.This process is called stimulated or induced emission.
Ans 2: Spontaneous Emission: As excited is highly unstable with life time of
10^-8sec,so electron will de excite itself with emission of a photon in any arbitrarydirection is called spontaneous emission.

Question # 10

Define characteristics of X-rays and continuous x-rays.

Ans 1: Chararcterstics X-rays: The x-rays emitted from inner shell transitions are called characteristics x-rays and their energy depends on the type of target material.
Continuous X-rays:The x-rays emitted having continuous range of frequencies due to bremsstrahlung effect are called continuous x rays.

Question # 1

Can electron reside inside the nucleus?

Ans 1: No,electron cannot reside inside the nucleus .If electron resides inside nucleus then uncertainty in position.

Question # 2

What are the difference between laser light and ordinary light?

Ans 1: The laser light is intense ,unidirectional and phase coherent ,so it does bit spread as compared to ordinary light.
The energy of laser can be focused at a point to get enough heat for welding which is not possible with ordinary light.
A laser beam is used as a surgical tool for welding detached retina which ordinary light can not do.

Ans 1:
- An electron ,bound to the nucleus in an atom,can moved around the nucleus in certain circular orbits without radiating,These orbits are called the discrete stationary orbits.
- Only those stationary orbits are allowed for which orbital angular momentum is equal to an integral multiple mvr=nh/2π.

Question # 4

Define normal population and population inversion.

Ans 1: In normal population ,the lower energy state has a greater population than the higher energy state.
Population inversion occurs when no more electron are in a higher energy state than in lower energy state.

Question # 5

Briefly describe continuous x-rays.

Ans 1: Continuous X-rays is due to an effect known as Bremsstrahlung effect when fast moving electron bombarded at the target,they are suddenly slowed down on impact with the target,And due to deceleration their kinetic energy is converted into X-rays photons.

Question # 6

Give two uses of laser in medicine and industry.

Ans 1: Laser is used
1. For welding detached retinas
2. To destroy cancerous and precancerous cells.

Question # 7

Differentiate between Line and Band spectrum.

Ans 1: Line spectrum: When electron jumps from higher orbit to lower orbit ,it emits energy,This emission of energy constitutes spectral line,This is called the line spectrum.
Ans 2: Band spectrum:is produced by molecules,They are the groups of lines which are closely spaced to another.

Question # 8

List of color of line spectra of an excited hydrogen atom.

Ans 1: The color of line spectrum of hydrogen atom are
- Red
- Blue
- Blue-Green
- Violet
- Ultraviolet

Question # 9

Write two properties of x-rays.

Ans 1:
1. They cause ionization.
2. They have very short wavelength.

Question # 10

Explain why laser action could not occur without population inversion between atomic levels?

Ans 1: When a large percentage of atom or sample are in population inversion,then large number of coherent photons along same direction of motion could be obtained to form laser light,It is impossible withput population inversion.
