Find the maximum frequency, the X-ray emitted by an X-ray tube operating at `30 kV`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

For maximum frequency , the total kinetic energy (in eV) should be converted into an X-ray photon.
Thus, hf=eV
`f="eV"/h=(1.6xx10^(-19)xx30xx10^3)/(6.63xx10^(-34))`
`=7.2xx10^8` Hz
