MCQ
The dependence of the short wavelength limit ${\lambda _{\min }}$ on the accelerating potential $V$ is represented by the curve of figure
  • $A$
  • B
    $B$
  • C
    $C$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: A.
$A$
a
(a)${\lambda _{\min }} = \frac{{hc}}{{eV}}$ ==> $\log .{\lambda _{\min }} = \log \frac{{hc}}{e} - \log V$

==> $\log {\lambda _{\min }} = - \log V + \log \frac{{hc}}{e}$

This is the equation of straight line having slope $(-1)$ and intercept $\log \frac{{hc}}{e}$ on $ + {\log _e}{\lambda _{\min }}$ axis.

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.

Assertion $A :$ For a simple microscope, the angular size of the object equals the angular size of the image.

Reason $R$ : Magnification is achieved as the small object can be kept much closer to the eye than $25\, cm$ and hence it subtends a large angle.
