An electron beam is accelerated by a potential difference $V$ to hit a metallic target to produce $X$-rays. It produces continuous as well as characteristic $X$-rays. If $\lambda_{\min}$ is the smallest possible wavelength of $X$-ray in the spectrum,the variation of $\log \lambda_{\min}$ with $\log V$ is correctly represented in:

  • A
    Option A
  • B
    Option B
  • C
    Option C
  • D
