A.
Raman effect
B.
Compton effect
C.
Zeeman effect
D.
Photoelectric
AnswerAnswer: Option D
Solution
Answer: Option D

When fast moving electrons strike on high atomic weight substance, X – ray is produced. In contrast, Photoelectric effect takes place when radiation of sufficient frequency incident on the metal surface and electrons are emitted. Hence, X – ray is the inverse phenomenon of photoelectric effect.
