    \[20\,\,kV\] potential is applied across \[X-\]ray tube, the minimum wavelength of \[X-\]ray emitted will be:

    A) \[0.62\,\,\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]                       

    B) \[0.37\,\,\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]

    C) \[1.62\,\,\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]                       

    D) \[1.31\,\,\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    From relation                 \[\frac{hc}{{{\lambda }_{\min }}}=eV\] or            \[{{\lambda }_{\min }}=\frac{hc}{eV}\] or            \[{{\lambda }_{\min }}=\frac{6.6\times {{10}^{-34}}\times 3\times {{10}^{8}}}{1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}\times 20\times {{10}^{3}}}\]                 \[=0.62\times {{10}^{-10}}m\]                 \[=0.62\,\,\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]
