The X-ray beam coming from an X-ray tube will be
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
-ray beam comming from tube, contain more than one wavelength. Hence, not monochromatic.
Let the potential difference between accelerating plates of tube 
Maximum 
craned by electron 
This maximum 
is equal to maximum energy of 
-Ray of photon 
X-ray beam has energy less than or equal to 
Hence wavelength is greater than or equal to
