Question

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

Answer 1

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.
