MCQ
The $X$-ray beam coming from the $X$-rays tube will be
  • A
    Monochromatic
  • B
    Dichromatic
  • Having all wavelengths greater than a certain minimum wavelength
  • D
    Having all wavelengths between a minimum and maximum wavelengths

Answer

Correct option: C.
Having all wavelengths greater than a certain minimum wavelength
c
(c)

Only the minimum wavelength is fixed in the case of an $X$-ray from $X$-ray tube. In this case $X$-rays are formed from emission by a substance and all possible transitions need to be accounted for. The only limit is the maximum energy supplied to material by incident light which depends on incident light.
