The K, L and M shell binding energies of a metal target are - 30.0 keV, - 5.0 keV and - 1.4 keV respectively. The incident photon beam energy is 50keV. Calculate: (i) The kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from the K shell (ii) The possible energies of characteristic photons emitted after photon interaction with K shell electrons. (iii) The possible kinetic energies of emitted Auger electrons after photon interaction with K shell electrons.
