What do you mean by hydrogen economy? How can it be helpful for our society?

Wilhelm Rontgen showed that when electrons strike a material in the cathode ray tube, some rays are originated that can cause fluorescence in the fluorescent material placed outside the cathode ray tubes. He named these rays as X-rays as these were not deflected by electric and magnetic field. X-rays are used as a diagnostic tool in the treatment of disease and bone fracture. An intelligence officer, John catched a smuggler by using this X-ray machine. He was trying to smuggle the drugs while travelling abroad.
The approximate wavelength of X-rays is ............
