What do you guys think the best answer tyo these questions are?

Descibe in detail an x-ray machine for use in a n undegraduate research lab:
(6 marks)

Explain how both characteristic and bremsstrahlung x-rays are produced?
(4 marks)

State two differences between the x-ray machine you described above and one qwhich might be used in a hospital for x-ray imaging.
(2 marks)


Its not a homework question, but rather an exam paper question I am using to revise and wondered what everyone else would have put for this question?

You need to give us your answers, and then we can offer tutorial help if necessary. We do NOT give out answers to questions like these. Please re-read the "Rules" link at the top of the page.

So what are your thoughts on each of these?
 
Thread 'Need help understanding this figure on energy levels'
This figure is from "Introduction to Quantum Mechanics" by Griffiths (3rd edition). It is available to download. It is from page 142. I am hoping the usual people on this site will give me a hand understanding what is going on in the figure. After the equation (4.50) it says "It is customary to introduce the principal quantum number, ##n##, which simply orders the allowed energies, starting with 1 for the ground state. (see the figure)" I still don't understand the figure :( Here is...
Thread 'Understanding how to "tack on" the time wiggle factor'
The last problem I posted on QM made it into advanced homework help, that is why I am putting it here. I am sorry for any hassle imposed on the moderators by myself. Part (a) is quite easy. We get $$\sigma_1 = 2\lambda, \mathbf{v}_1 = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_2 = \lambda, \mathbf{v}_2 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_3 = -\lambda, \mathbf{v}_3 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ -1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} $$ There are two ways...
