    When a Coolidge tube is operated for some time it becomes hot. Where does the heat come from?

    An x-ray tube is operated at 20 kV and the current through the tube is 0*5 mA . Find (a) the number of electrons hitting the target per second, (b) the energy falling on the target per second as the kinetic energy of the electrons and © the cutoff wavelength of the X-rays emitted.

    A diode valve is connected to a battery and a load resistance. The filament is heated so that a constant current is obtained in the circuit. As the cathode continuously emits electrons, does it get more and more positively charged?

    Why does an ebonite rod get negatively charged on rubbing with fur ?

    50% of the X-ray coming from a Coolidge tube is able to pase through a 0.1 mm thick aluminium foil. If the potential difference between the target and the filament is increased, the fraction of the X-ray passing through the same foil will be
