Rajashree Basu on 13 Feb 13The energy of X rays can be controlled by controlling the accelerating voltage

The intensity of the X-ray beam depends on the number of electrons striking
the target per second and in the hot-cathode tubes this is controlled by the heater current.
The wavelength depends on the voltage across the tube. The penetrating power of the X-
rays is thus dependent on the accelerating voltage and the intensity of the beam on the
heater voltage.
