Answer:

Gamma rays

Explanation:

The penetrating power of gamma rays is maximum as compared to beta and alpha rays. Gamma rays are nothing but the photons i.e. the packets of energy. Their energy range lies from kilo electron volts to 8 mega electron volts. It is emitted during the decay of many radioactive isotopes, such as U-238 and I-131. A large amount of energy is produced in decay of uranium 238.

Hence, the correct option is " gamma rays ".

In a double-slit experiment, light from two monochromatic light sources passes through the same double slit. The light from the
GaryK [48]

We will determine the wavelength through the relationship given by the distance between slits, this relationship is given under the function

y = \frac{m\lambda}{d}

Here,

m = Number of order bright fringe

\lambda = Wavelength

d = Distance between slits

Both distance are the same, then

y_1 = y_2

\frac{m_1\lambda_1 r}{d} = \frac{m_2\lambda_2 r}{d}

\frac{m_1\lambda_1}{m_2\lambda_2} =1

 Rearranging to find the second wavelength

m_1 \lambda_1 = m_2 \lambda _2

\lambda_2 = \frac{m_1\lambda_1}{m_2}

\lambda_2 = \frac{7(629)}{8}

\lambda_2 = 550.3nm

Therefore the wavelength of the light coming from the second monochromatic light source is 550.3nm
