उत्तर
1. Wavelength of X-rays: λ = 0.01Å
= `1/100 xx 10^-10` m
λ = 10-12 m
2. Assumption made is speed of X-rays = Speed of light = 3 × 108 m
C = f λ
f = `C/ λ`
= `(3 xx 10^8)/(10^-12)`
= `3 xx 10^(8+12)`
f = 3 × 1020 Hz

The figure shows the intensity-wavelength relations of X-rays coming from two different Coolidge tubes. The solid curve represents the relation for the tube A in which the potential difference between the target and the filament is VA and the atomic number of the target material is ZA. These quantities are VB and ZB for the other tube. Then,
50% of the X-ray coming from a Coolidge tube is able to pass through a 0.1 mm thick aluminium foil. The potential difference between the target and the filament is increased. The thickness of the aluminium foil that will allow 50% of the X-ray to pass through will be
