voltage applied across the coolidge tube is 25 KV what is kinetic energy of electron striking at the target and cutoff wavelength of X-Ray obtained from the tube
Answers
kinetic energy = 4 × 10^-15 J and wavelength = 0.007737 nm
applied voltage across the Coolidge tube is 25kV
so, kinetic energy = charge of an electron × voltage
= e × 25kV
= 25keV
we know, 1eV = 1.6 × 10^-19 J
so, 25keV = 25 × 10³ × 1.6 × 10^-19 J
= 4 × 10^-15 J
hence, kinetic energy, E = 4 × 10^-15 J
wavelength = h/√(2mE)
here m is mass of electron and E is kinetic energy.
= 6.6 × 10^-34/√{2 × 9.1 × 10^-31 × 4 × 10^-15)
= 6.6 × 10^-34/√(2 × 9.1 × 4) × 10^-23
= 6.6 × 10^-11/8.53
= 0.7737 × 10^-11 m
= 0.007737 nm
