BIO Medical X rays. Medical x rays are taken with electromagnetic waves having a wavelength of around 0.10 nm in air. What are the frequency, period, and wave number of such waves?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The frequency, time period, and wave number of waves are3108Hz,3.310-19)sec and 6.31010rad/m.

Step by step solution

01

Define frequency and write formulas.

The number of waves that moves a fixed point in unit time is known as frequency.

f=1T

Where,T =Time period in s.

The frequency, wavelength, and speed of light of any wave are related by the wavelength-frequency relationship.

The wavelength-frequency relationship is:

c=f

Where, c is the speed of light which is equal to 3108m/s, is the wavelength andf is the frequency.

The wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency.

=cfor vf

Where, v is velocity of wave in m/s.

The relation between wave number and wavelength is:

k=2

Where, k is wavenumber in rad/m.

02

Determine the frequency of wave.

Given that,

=0.1010-9m

The wavelength-frequency relationship is:

c=ff=c

Substitute the values of variables

f=c=31080.10109=31018Hz

Hence, the frequency of waves is 31018Hz.

03

Determine the time period.

The frequency of wave is:

f=1TT=1f

Substitute the values of variables

T=1f=131019=3.310-19sec

Hence the time period is equal to 3.310-19sec.

04

Determine the wave number.

The relation between wave number and wavelength is:

k=2

Substitute the values of variables

k=20.1010-9=6.31010rad/m

Hence, the wave number is equal to 6.31010rad/m.
