What are the two mechanisms by which x-rays are produced?
a. Coherent scattering and photoelectric effect
b. Bremsstrahlung and characteristic
C. Compton effect and pair production
d. Annihilation radiation and photon disintegration
Which of the following statement is true about Bremsstrahlung radiation?

not higher

b.
C.
electrons
e. All of the above
