When the number of electron striking the anode of an X - ray tube is increase , the ……. of the emitted X - ray increases , while when the speed of the electrons the anode are increased , the cut - off wavelength of the emitted X - ray ……….

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
Intensity decreases,
More the number of electrons striking the anode, more is the emitted numbet of photon of X-ray.
`[Q lambda = (12375)/(V) Å]`, where `V` is not volt.
