An X-ray tube is operated at 30 kV. If a particular electron loses 10% of its kinetic energy to emit an X-ray photon during the collision. Find the minimum wavelength and maximum frequency associated with this photon.

Explanation

To solve the problem, we need to find the minimum wavelength and maximum frequency of an X-ray photon emitted when an electron loses 10% of its kinetic energy. The steps to solve this are as follows:

### Step 1: Calculate the kinetic energy of the electron
The kinetic energy (KE) of an electron accelerated through a potential difference (V) is given by the formula:
\[ KE = e \cdot V \]
where \(e\) is the charge of the electron (approximately \(1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{C}\)) and \(V\) is the potential difference in volts.
