A narrow X-ray beam falls on a NaCl single crystal. The least angle of incidence at which the mirror reflection from the system of crystallographic planes is still observed is equal to alpha = 4.1^(@). The interplaner distance is d = 0.28nm. How high is the voltage applied to the X-ray tube?

Solution :We have as in the above problem
`(2picancelh c)/(LAMBDA) = EV`
On the other hand, from Bragg's LAW
`2d sin alpha = k lambda = lambda`
SINCE `k = 1` when `alpha` takes its smaller value.
Thus `V = (pi cancelh c)/(edsin alpha) = 30.974kV~~31kV`.
