(a)
Interpretation:
Energy and wavelength of gamma ray that would convert excited state I to ground state has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
In the radioactive decay process the unstable isotopes loses their energy by emitting radiation in order to attain stable species. It is converted in to stable isotopes by emitting positron
Planck’s equation,
The energy increases as the wavelength of the light decreases.
(b)
Interpretation:
Energy of the
Concept Introduction:
