The shorted wavelength of X- rays emitted from an X- rays tube depends on

A

Current in the tube

B

Voltage applied to the tube

C

Nature of gas in the tube

D

Atomic number of target material

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`lambda_(min) = (hc)/( eV)`. where `h , c` and `e` are constants. Hence
`lambda_(min) prop (1)/(V)`
