Describe how X-rays are produced in the X-ray tube. List the parts of the tube, the function each part performs, the construction material of each part, the reason for the selection of these materials, the sources of energy to produce rays, necessary conditions in the X-ray tube for the effective production of rays, among other details
Compton effect
The incoming photons' energy must be in the range of an X-ray frequency to generate the Compton effect. The electron does not lose enough energy that reduces the wavelength of scattered photons towards the visible spectrum. As a result, with visible lights, the Compton effect is missing.
Recoil Velocity
The amount of backward thrust or force experienced by a person when he/she shoots a gun in the forward direction is called recoil velocity. This phenomenon always follows the law of conservation of linear momentum.
