when an electron jumps from L to K shell, the energy is absorbed because k is inner shell and l is outer shell .k shell is much closer to nucleus than l shell

When an electron falls from the L shell to the K shell, the X-ray emitted. instead of releasing the energy in the form of an X-ray, the energy can be transferred to another electron.

Dear Sai sowrya vardhan,
               When an electron jumps from L shell to K then energy is released because in order K,L,M,N....like so L is the outer shell than K,so when an electron jumps from higher level to lower level the energy is released.
