How are X-rays produced?
Advertisements
उत्तर
The mechanical energy of electrons is transformed into the electromagnetic energy of X-rays during the production process. They are created when fast electrons smash with metal plates, releasing energy that is then absorbed by the metal plate as X-Rays.

State an additional use of the X-rays waves
Name three properties of ultraviolet radiations which are similar to visible light.
Continuous X-rays are made to strike a tissue paper soaked with polluted water. The incoming X-rays excite the atoms of the sample by knocking out the electrons from the inner shells. Characteristic X-rays are analysed and the intensity is plotted against the wavelength. Assuming that only Kα intensities are detected, list the elements present in the sample from the plot. Use Moseley's equation v − (25 × 1014Hz)(Z − 1)2.
(Use Planck constant h = 6.63 × 10-34 Js= 4.14 × 10-15 eVs, speed of light c = 3 × 108 m/s.)
Name the radiations used for the detection of fracture in bones.
All components of the electromagnetic spectrum in a vacuum have the same ______
What happens to the intensity of light from a bulb if the distance from the bulb is doubled? As a laser beam travels across the length of a room, its intensity essentially remains constant. What geometrical characteristic of LASER beam is responsible for the constant intensity which is missing in the case of light from the bulb?
Arrange the following electromagnetic radiation in the ascending order of their frequencies:
X-rays, microwaves, gamma rays, radio waves
Which is the correct ascending order of wavelengths?
Photons of an electromagnetic radiation has an energy 11 keV each. To which region of electromagnetic spectrum does it belong?
Identify the electromagnetic wave whose wavelength range is from about 10-12 m to about 10-8 m. Write one use of this.
