उत्तर
(i) Ultra-violet radiations can travel in vacuum as the visible light can do, with the speed 3 × 108 ms−1.
(ii) Both the ultra-violet radiations and the visible light are electromagnetic waves.
(iii) Both the ultra-violet radiations and the visible light obey the laws of reflection and refraction.

In a Coolidge tube, electrons strike the target and stop inside it. Does the target get more and more negatively charged as time passes?
An X-ray beam can be deflected
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,

X-ray from a Coolidge tube is incident on a thin aluminium foil. The intensity of the X-ray transmitted by the foil is found to be I0. The heating current is increased to increase the temperature of the filament. The intensity of the X-ray transmitted by the foil will be
(a) zero
(b) < I0
(c) I0
(d) > I0
