1. The wavelength of visible light is more than that of X-rays

2. The energy of X-rays photons is higher than that of UV light photons.

3. The energy of UV light photons is less than that of visible light photons.

Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

1, 2 and 3

1 and 2 only

2 and 3 only

1 only

Explanation:

Option(2) , Only statements, the wavelength of visible light is more than that of X-rays and the energy of X-ray photons is higher than that of UV light photons is correct. While the energy of UV light photons is greater than that of visible light photons and not less than as mentioned in the statement 3
