Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
ok I know that characteristic X-rays happen because the electrons in outer shells move to the lowest possible energy shell and that the change in energy equals the energy of the emited X-rays
My question now looking at the picture I don't quite know why the graphs D and B are incorrect , I know that A can't be true and that C is the correct answer, but can someone explain to me why D and B are wrong ?
Thanks
