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

  • question_answer
    A potential difference of 42,000 volts is used in an X-ray tube to accelerate electrons. The maximum frequency of the X?radiations produced is                                       [MP PMT 1993]

    A)            \[{{10}^{19}}\,\,Hz\]         

    B)            \[{{10}^{18}}\,\,\,Hz\]

    C)            \[{{10}^{16}}\,\,Hz\]         

    D)            \[{{10}^{20}}\,\,Hz\] \[(1\,eV=1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}J\] and \[h=6.63\times {{10}^{-34}}J-\sec )\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               \[h{{\nu }_{o}}=eV\]\[\therefore \,\,\,{{\nu }_{o}}=\frac{eV}{h}=\frac{1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}\times 42000}{6.63\times {{10}^{-34}}}={{10}^{19}}\,Hz\]
