  • Question
  • A photon of X-ray has energy of 1 keV. A photon of visible radiation has energy of 3 eV. In this context, which one of the following statements is not correct?


  • Options
  • A. The wavelength of X-ray photon is less than the wavelength of visible radiation photon.
  • B. Both the photons have different energies.
  • C. The speeds of both the photons in vacuum are different
  • D. The frequency of X-ray photon is higher than the frequency of visible radiation photon.

  • Correct Answer
  • The  speeds  of  both  the  photons  in vacuum are different 

    Explanation

    The speed of all the electromagnetic radiation are always   same   and   equal   to   the numerical value 3 x 10^8m/sec.
