The intensity of X-rays from a Coolidge tube is plotted against wavelength λ as shown in the figure. The minimum wavelength found is λC and the wavelength of the Ka line is λK. As the accelerating voltage is increased
- lK – lC increases
- lK – lC decreases
- lK increases
- lK decreases.
Answer
(B) l K – l C decreases
