JEE Main & Advanced Physics Photo Electric Effect, X- Rays & Matter Waves Question Bank X Rays

  • question_answer
    If the cathode?anode potential difference in an X-ray tube be 105 V, then the maximum energy of X-ray photon can be

    A)            105 J                                         

    B)            105 MeV

    C)            10?1 MeV                               

    D)            105 KeV

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                       Since \[{{\lambda }_{\min }}=\frac{12375}{V}{\AA}\]\[=\frac{12375}{{{10}^{5}}}\,{\AA}=0.123\,{\AA}\]                    \[{{E}_{\max }}=\frac{hc}{{{\lambda }_{\min }}};\]            On putting the values. \[{{E}_{\max }}\cong {{10}^{-1}}MeV.\]
