Question

If the potential difference between the anode and cathode of the X-ray tube is increases

  1. The peaks at R and S would move to shorter wavelength    
  2. The peaks at R and S would remain at the same wavelength    
  3. The cut off wavelength at P would decrease    
  4. (b) and (c) both are correct    

The correct answer is: (b) and (c) both are correct


    Peaks on the graph represent characteristic X-ray spectrum. Every peak has a certain wavelength, which depends upon the transition of electron inside the atom of the target. While lambda subscript m i n end subscriptdepends upon the accelerating voltage (As. lambda subscript m i n end subscript)
