intensity of X-rays depends on the number of photons emitted

26. (b) When fast moving electrons strike the atoms of the target, then
most of their kinetic energy is used in increasing the thermal
agitation of the atoms of the target and only a small part is
radiated in the form of X-rays. So the temperature of the target
rises.

crystal structure.
29. (b) In photoelectric effect, the photon falling on some matter is
absorbed by the matter and its energy is transferred to an
electron of the matter. In X-ray production, photons are
produced which get energy from energetic electrons ionising
the inner shells of the target which in turn cause a cascade of
emission lines.
