Statement I If the accelerating potential in an X-ray tube is increased, the wavelengths of the characteristic \(X\)-rays do not change.
Statement II When an electron beam strikes the target in an X-ray tube, part of the kinetic energy is converted into X-ray energy.
- A Statement I is true, Statement II is true; Statement II is a correct explanation for Statement I
- B Statement I is true, Statement II is true; Statement II is NOT a correct explanation for Statement I
- C Statement I is true, Statement II is false
- D Statement I is false, Statement II is true
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Statement I is true, Statement II is true; Statement II is NOT a correct explanation for Statement I
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Cut-off wavelength depends on the accelerating voltage, not the characteristic \(\mathrm{X}\)-rays. Further approximately \(2 \%\) kinetic energy of the electrons is utilised in producing X-rays. Rest \(98 \%\) is lost in heat.
\(\therefore\) Option (b) is correct.
\(\therefore\) Option (b) is correct.

- A spherical soap bubble inside an air chamber at pressure \(P_0=10^5 \mathrm{~Pa}\) has a certain radius so that the excess pressure inside the bubble is \(\Delta P=144 \mathrm{~Pa}\). Now, the chamber pressure is reduced to \(8 P_0 / 27\) so that the bubble radius and its excess pressure change. In this process, all the temperatures remain unchanged. Assume air to be an ideal gas and the excess pressure \(\Delta P\) in both the cases to be much smaller than the chamber pressure. The new excess pressure \(\Delta P\) in \(\mathrm{Pa}\) is ________ .JEE Advanced 2024 Medium
- Paragraph:
A point charge \(Q\) is moving in a circular orbit of radius \(R\) in the \(x-y\) plane with an angular velocity \(\omega .\) This can be considered as equivalent to a loop carrying a steady current \(\frac{Q \omega}{2 \pi}\). A uniform magnetic field along the positive \(z\)-axis is now switched on, which increases at a constant rate from 0 to \(B\) in one second. Assume that the radius of the orbit remains constant. The application of the magnetic field induces an emf in the orbit. The induced emf is defined as the work done by an induced electric field in moving a unit positive charge around a closed loop. It is known that, for an orbiting charge, the magnetic dipole moment is proportional to the angular momentum with a proportionality constant \(\gamma\).
Question:

- Paragraph :
A spray gun is shown in the figure where a piston pushes air out of a nozzle. A thin tube of uniform cross section is connected to the nozzle. The other end of the tube is in a small liquid container. As the piston pushes air through the nozzle, the liquid from the container rises into the nozzle and is sprayed out. For the spray gun shown, the radii of the piston and the nozzle are \(20 \mathrm{~mm}\) and \(1 \mathrm{~mm}\), respectively. The upper end of the container is open to the atmosphere.
