    The potential difference applied to an X-ray tube is increased. As a result, in the emitted radiation.

    A)  the intensity decreases.

    B)  the minimum wavelength increases

    C)  the intensity remains unchanged

    D)  the minimum wavelength decreases

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    As V is increased, \[{{\lambda }_{\min }}=\frac{hc}{eV}\] decreases. Even if the number of photons is constant, with decrease in \[{{\lambda }_{\min }}\] energy of photons and hence intensity of emitted radiation increases.
