Question

An X-ray tube is operated at 66 kV. Then, in the continuous spectrum of the emitted X-rays

Solution

Correct option is

Wavelength 0.01 nm will be absent but wavelength 0.02 nm will be present

V = 66 kV

    = 66,000 V. Now  

          

                    

                    

                     = 0.0187 nm.

Since wavelength 0.01 nm is less than  it will be absent from the continuous spectrum.
