प्रश्न

The X-ray coming from a Coolidge tube has a cutoff wavelength of 80 pm. Find the kinetic energy of the electrons hitting the target.

(Use Planck constant h = 6.63 × 10-34 Js= 4.14 × 10-15 eVs, speed of light c = 3 × 108 m/s.)

उत्तर

Given:-

Cutoff wavelength of the Coolidge tube, `lambda = 80  "pm"`

Energy of the electron hitting the target (E) is given by

`E = (hc)/lambda`

Here,
h = Planck's constant
c = Speed of light
λ = Wavelength of light

`therefore E = (1242  "eV"-"nm")/(80 xx 10^-3)`

`⇒ E = (1242 xx 10^-9  "eV")/(80 xx 10^-12)`

`⇒ E = 15.525 xx 10^3  "eV" ≈ 15.5  "keV"`
