MCQ
The minimum wavelength of $X$-rays produced by an electron accelerated through a potential difference of $V_{\text {volts }}$ is proportional to :
  • A
    $V^2$
  • B
    $\sqrt{V}$
  • $\frac{1}{V}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{V}}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\frac{1}{V}$
c
Minimum wavelength of $X-$Rays is

$\lambda_{\min }=\frac{ hC }{ eV }$

hence $\lambda_{\min } \propto \frac{1}{V}$

So Ans. $\left(\frac{1}{ V }\right)$
