The x rays shown are produced when 35.0 ke V electrons strike a molybdenum `(Z=42)` target. If the accelerating potential is maintained at this value but a silver `(Z=47)` target is used instead, what values of (a) `lambda_(min)`, (b) the wavelength of the `K_(alpha)` line, and (c ) the wavelength of the `K_(beta)` line result? The K, L, and M atomic x-ray levels for silver are 25.51, 3.56, and 0.53 keV.

Explanation

(a) 5.4 pm, (b) 56.5 pm, (c ) 49.6 pm
