Question:

Consider an X-ray tube that uses platinum (Z = 78) as its target.
(a) Use the Bohr model to estimate the minimum kinetic energy electrons must have in order for Ka X-rays to just appear in the X-ray spectrum of the tube.
(b) Assuming the electrons are accelerated from rest through a voltage V, estimate the minimum voltage necessary to produce the Ka X-rays.
