MCQ

If $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ are the wavelengths of characteristic X-rays and gamma rays respectively, then the relation between them is

A
$\lambda_1=\frac{1}{\lambda_2}$
B
$\lambda_1=\lambda_2$
✓
$\lambda_1>\lambda_2$
D
$\lambda_1<\lambda_2$

✓

Answer

Correct option: C.

$\lambda_1>\lambda_2$

In general $X$-rays have larger wavelength than that of gamma rays.
