For Bremsstrahlung radiation (or "braking X- radiation" )
the low-wavelength cutoff may be determined from Duane–Hunt law :
λ =h•c/e•U,
where h is Planck's constant, c is the speed of light, V is the voltage that the electrons are accelerated through, e is the elementary charge
λ = 6.63•10^-34•3•10^8/1.6•10^-19•3.89•10^4 = 3.19•10^-11 m.
λ = 6.63•10^-34•3•10^8/1.6•10^-19•3.89•10^4 = 3.19•10^-11 m.
