STATEMENT -2
When an electron beam strikes the target in an X- rays tube, part of the kinectic energy is converted into X - rays energy .

A

Statement - 1 is true , Statement -2 is true Statement -2 is a correct explanation for Statement - 1

B

Statement - 1 is true , Statement -2 is true Statement -2 is a NOT a correct explanation for Statement - 1

C

Statement - 1 is true , Statement -2 is false

D

Statement - 1 is false , Statement -2 is true

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

(b) Statement 1 : The wavelength of characteristic X- rays depends on the of atome of which the targetmate meterial is mode , it does not depend on the accelerating potential therefore statement 1 is true
Statement 2 : when an electric beam strikes the target in an X- rays tube , part of the kinetic energy is converted into X- ray energy .This statement is true But statement 2 does not explain statement 1
