← ScienceWhich consequence results when an X-ray beam's intensity attenuates upon striking a metal?
A)Photoelectric effect releases core electrons✓
B)Compton scattering decreases beam frequencies
C)Pair production generates matter particles
D)Bremsstrahlung radiation generates secondary photons
💡 Explanation
The cause relates to incoming X-rays striking metal. The photoelectric effect ejects electrons because photons transfer energy creating current, therefore this ejection weakens beam intensity rather than producing scattered lower frequencies or more fundamental particles.
