Which of the constants is not related to radiation?

Correct answer: A. Boltzmann

  • A. Boltzmann
  • B. Planck
  • C. Solar constant
  • D. All of these options are correct

Explanation

The "Boltzmann" constant is the proportionality factor that relates the average relative kinetic energy of particles in a gas with the thermodynamic temperature of the gas."Planck's" constant relates the energy in one quantum (photon) of electromagnetic RADIATION to the frequency of that RADIATION.The "solar constant" is a flux density measuring means solar electromagnetic RADIATION per unit area. Hence Option A would be the correct option.

About Nuclear Physics

Atomic nuclei contain protons and neutrons, with nuclear size, mass defect and binding energy describing their stability. The work covers alpha, beta and gamma decay, decay equations, half-life and decay rate, along with radiation safety and medical applications such as imaging, radiotherapy and tracers.
