Photoelectric EffectHard
Question
Consider a photon of continuous X-ray coming from a Coolidge tube. Energy of photon comes from
Options
A.the kinetic energy of the stricking electron
B. the kinetic energy of the free electrons of the target
C. the kinetic energy of the ions of the target
D.an atomic transition in the target
Solution
The contineous x-ray comes out because the striking electron loser its kinetic energy
