Solutions
The wavelength of characteristic X - rays depends on the type of atoms
of which the target material is made. It does not depend on the
accelerating potential. Therefore, statement I is true.
When an electric beam strikes the target in an X - ray tube, part of the
kinetic energy is converted into X - ray energy. This statement is true.
But statement 2 does not explain statement 1.
The correct answer is: Both Statement - 1 and Statement - 2 are true and Statement - 2 is not the correct explanation of Statement - 1.
