    An X-ray tube is operated at 50 kV. The minimum wavelength produced is

    A) 0.5 \[{{A}^{o}}\]                              

    B) 0.75 \[{{A}^{o}}\]

    C) 0.25 \[{{A}^{o}}\]                            

    D) 1\[{{A}^{o}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Minimum wavelength = cut off wavelength of X-ray \[{{\lambda }_{\min }}=\frac{hc}{eV}=\frac{12375}{V(in\,volt)}\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\] \[{{\lambda }_{\min }}=\frac{12375}{50\times {{10}^{3}}}\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,=0.247=0.25\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]
