Question
Which one of the following statements is WRONG in the context of X-rays generated from a X-ray tube?
Options
A.Wavelength of characteristic X-rays decreases when the atomic number of the target increases.
B.Cut-off wavelength of the continuous X-rays depends on the atomic number of the target
C.Intensity of the characteristic X-rays depends on the electrical power given to the X-ray tube
D.Cut-off wavelength of the continuous X-rays depends on the energy of the electrons in the X-ray tube
