With the help of a labelled diagram explain how x rays are produced in an x ray tube​

Physics
1 answer:
sladkih [1.3K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

X-rays are commonly produced in X-ray tubes by accelerating electrons through a potential difference (a voltage drop) and directing them onto a target material (i.e. tungsten).

The incoming electrons release X-rays as they slowdown in the target (braking radiation or bremsstrahlung). The X-ray photons produced in this manner range in energy from near zero up to the energy of the electrons.

Because atoms of elements in the same group of the periodic table have the same number of neutrons, they have similar properties
AURORKA [14]
False. What actually determines the properties of elements are the electrons, or aka valence electrons. They are used to bond, which determines its properties.

The length of a certain wire is doubled and at the same time its radius is also doubled. What is the new resistance of this wire
Leto [7]

Answer:

R' = R/2

Therefore, the new resistance of the wire is twice the value of the initial resistance.

Explanation:

Consider a wire with:

Resistance = R

Length = L

Area = A = πr²

where, r = radius

ρ = resistivity

Then:

R = ρL/A

R = ρL/πr²   --------------- equation 1

Now, the new wire has:

Resistance = R'

Resistivity = ρ

Length = L' = 2 L

Radius = r' = 2r

Area = πr'² = π(2r)² = 4πr²

Therefore,

R' = ρL'/πr'²

R' = ρ(2 L)/4πr²

R' = (1/2)(ρL/πr²)

using equation 1:

<u>R' = R/2</u>

<u>Therefore, the new resistance of the wire is twice the value of the initial resistance.</u>

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

u = 1.77 m/s

Explanation:

Conservation of momentum

2250(10.3) + 3160u = (2250 + 3160)(5.32)

u = 1.77 m/s
