An electron beam in an $X$-ray tube is accelerated through a potential difference of $50000 \ V$. These are then made to fall on a tungsten target. The shortest wavelength of the $X$-ray emitted by the tube is

If the attenuation coefficient of aluminum for soft $X$-rays is $1.73 \, cm^{-1}$,what percentage of $X$-rays will pass through an aluminum sheet of thickness $1.156 \, cm$?

The diagram shows a graph between the intensity of $X$-rays emitted by a molybdenum target and the wavelength,when electrons of $30 \ keV$ are incident on the target. In the graph,one peak corresponds to the $K_\alpha$ line and the other peak corresponds to the $K_\beta$ line.
