(Solution) - Determine the constant C in Eq 40 27 to five significant -(2025 Original AI-Free Solution)

Paper Details

Determine the constant C in Eq. 40-27 to five significant figures by finding C in terms of the fundamental constants in Eq. 40-24 and then using data from Appendix B to evaluate those constants. Using this value of C in Eq. 40-27, determine the theoretical energy Etheory of the Ka photon for the low-mass elements listed in the following table. The table includes the value (eV) of the measured energy Eexp of the Ka photon for each listed element. The percentage deviation between Etheory and Eexp can be calculated as

What is the percentage deviation for
(a) Li,
(b) Be,
(c) B,
(d) C,
(e) N,
(f) O,
(g) F,
(h) Ne,
(i) Na,
(j) Mg
(There is actually more than one Ka ray because of the splitting of the L energy level, but that effect is negligible for the elements listed here.)
