Question
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
- A continuous X-ray spectrum (Bremsstrahlung) with a minimum wavelength of ~ 0.155Å
- A continuous X-ray spectrum (Bremsstrahlung] with all wavelengths
- The characteristic X-rays spectrum of tungsten
- A continuous X-ray spectrum (Bremsstrahlung) with a minimum wavelength of ~ 0.155Å and the characteristic X-ray spectrum of tungsten
The correct answer is: A continuous X-ray spectrum (Bremsstrahlung) with a minimum wavelength of ~ 0.155Å and the characteristic X-ray spectrum of tungsten
Minimum wavelength of continuous X-ray spectrum is given by 
Also the energy of the incident electrons (80 KeV) is more than the ionization energy of the K-shell electrons (i.e. 72.5 KeV). Therefore characteristic X-ray spectrum will also be obtained because energy of incident electron is enough to knock out the electron from K or L shells

In an experiment of photo-electric effect, singly ionized ‘He’ is excited electronically to different energy levels. The emission spectra of the He hence produced is made incident on a photoelectric plate in the photo-cell. When He is excited to fourth energy level then the observed stopping potential of photo –cell is found to be five times the stopping potential when hydrogen is excited to third energy level. The work function of the material of the photo electric plate is
