Answer


$\text{K}_\text{B}$ radiation is when the e jumps from
n = 3 to n = 1 (here n is principal quantum no)
$\Delta\text{E}=\text{hv}=\text{Rhc(z-h)}^2\Big(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2}\Big)$
$\sqrt{\text{v}}=\sqrt{\frac{9\text{RC}}{8}}(\text{z}-\text{h})$
$\therefore\sqrt{\text{v}}\propto\text{z}$
Second method :
We can directly get value of v b
hv = Energy
$\Rightarrow\text{v}=\frac{\text{Energy(in Kev)}}{\text{h}}$
This we have to find out $\sqrt{\text{v}}$ and draw the same graph as above.

You are given two sets of potentiometer circuits to measure the emf $E_1 $ of a cell. Set A: consists of a potentiometer wire of a material of resistivity $\rho_1$, area of cross-section $A_1$ and length l. Set B: consists of a potentiometer of two composite wire of equal lengths $\frac{\text{l}}2{}$ each, of resistivity $\rho_1,\rho_2$ and area of cross-section $A _1,A_2$ respectively.

Find the relation between resistivity of the two wires with respect to their area of cross section, if the current flowing in the two sets is same. Compare the balancing length obtained in the two sets.
