The wavelength of the ${K_\alpha}$ line for an element of atomic number $29$ is $\lambda$. Then the wavelength of the ${K_\alpha}$ line for an element of atomic number $15$ is (Take Moseley's constant $b = 1$ for both elements).

  • A
    $\frac{29}{15}\lambda$
  • B
    $\frac{28}{15}\lambda$
  • C
    $4\lambda$
  • D
    $2\lambda$
