Question

What kind of rays are produced when a metal, such as tungsten, is bombarded with

Answer 1

Answer: x-rays

Explanation: When the electrons from the filament strike the tungsten target, x-rays are created photons are created if they either hit a target nucleus directly (rare) or their path takes them close to the nucleus. If a high- speed electron hits the nucleus of a target atom, all its kinetic energy is transformed into a single x-ray photon.
