Questions
Electrons with energy 80 keV are incident on the tungsten target of an X-ray tube. K shell electrons of tungsten have ionization energy 72.5 keV. X-rays emitted by the tube contain only
detailed solution
Correct option is D
Minimum wavelength of continuous X-ray spectrum is given by λminin Ao=12375EeV=1237580×103≈0.155 Also the energy of the incident electrons (80 K eV) is more than the ionization energy of the K-shell electrons (i.e., 72.5 K eV). Therefore characteristicX-ray spectrum will also be obtained because energy of incident electron is enough to knock out the electron from K or L shells.Similar Questions
