Questions  

Penetrating power of X-rays can be increased by 

a
Increasing the potential difference between anode and cathode
b
Decreasing the potential difference between anode and cathode
c
Increasing the cathode filament current
d
Decreasing the cathode filament current

detailed solution

Correct option is A

With the increase in potential difference between anode and cathode energy of striking electrons increases which in turn increases the energy (penetration power) of X-rays.
