Power $=\frac{\text { nhc }}{\lambda} \lambda \approx 1 \mathrm{A} \equiv \mathrm{X}$ Rays

Q. An electromagnetic wave in vacuum has the electric and magnetic fields $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}}$ and $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}$, which are

always perpendicular to each other. The direction of polarization is given by $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{X}}$ and that ofwave

propagation by $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{k}}$. Then

(1) $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{X}} \| \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}$ and $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{k}} \| \overrightarrow{\mathrm{E}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}$

Q. A red LED emits light at 0.1 watt uniformly around it. The amplitude of the electric field of the light at a distance of 1 $\mathrm{m}$ from the diode is :-

(1) $5.48 \mathrm{V} / \mathrm{m}$

(2) $7.75 \mathrm{V} / \mathrm{m}$

(3) $1.73 \mathrm{V} / \mathrm{m}$

(4) $2.45 \mathrm{V} / \mathrm{m}$

Sol. (4)

$\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{av}}=\frac{1}{2} \varepsilon_{0} \mathrm{E}^{2} \mathrm{C}=\frac{\mathrm{P}}{4 \pi \mathrm{r}^{2}}$

$\mathrm{E}=\sqrt{\frac{2 \mathrm{P}}{4 \pi \mathrm{r}^{2} \varepsilon_{0} \mathrm{c}}}$

On putting value we get

$=2.45 \mathrm{v} / \mathrm{m} .$

Q. Arrange the following electromagnetic radiations per quantum in the order of increasing energy :-
