Q 1 :

The waves emitted when a metal target is bombarded with high energy electrons are             [2023]

  • Radio Waves

     

  • Microwaves

     

  • X-rays

     

  • Infrared rays

     

(3)

X rays are emitted when target metal is bombarded with high energy electron.



Q 2 :

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

  • λ0=2mcλ2h

     

  • λ0=2hmc

     

  • λ0=2m2c2λ3h2

     

  • λ0=λ

     

(1)

p=hλ

K.E.=p22m=h22mλ2

h22mλ2=hcλ0

λ0=2mcλ2h
