In x-ray production, electrons are accelerated through a high voltage AV and then decelerated by striking a target. Show that the shortest wavelength of an x-ray that can be produced is 1240 nm · V A min = Δν
In x-ray production, electrons are accelerated through a high voltage ΔV and then decelerated by striking a target. Show that the shortest wavelength of an x-ray that can be produced is                                      λmin = (1 240 nm ⋅ V)/(ΔV)
Electrons with de-Broglie wavelength λ fall on the target in an X-ray tube. The cut-off wavelength of the emitted X-rays is (a) λ = (c) λo 2mcλ² h 2m²c²x³ h² 2 3 2h (b) λο (d) λ = λ 20 mc
