RAD150 Chapter 1

QuestionAnswer
Velocity= v distance/time d/t
Average Velocity= _ v (initial + final velocity)/2 (Vo+Vf)/2
Acceleration= a (final - initial velocity)/time (Vf-Vo)/t
Force= F mass x acceleration ma
Weight= Wt mass x acceleration of gravity mg
Momentum= p mass x velocity mv
Work= W force x distance Fd
Power= P work/time w/t
Kinetic energy= KE 1/2(mass)(velocity)^2 1/2mv^2
Potential energy= PE mass x gravity x height above earth's surface mgh
Temperature in celsius= Tc 5/9(Tf-32)
Temperature in farenheit= Tf 9/5Tc+32
Temperature in Kelvin= Tk Tc+273
kilo- (k) 1000
mega- (M) 1,000,000
giga- (G) 1,000,000,000
centi- (c) 1/100
milli- (m) 1/1000
micro- (u) 1/1,000,000
Define mass quantity of matter described by its energy equivalence
Define weight force exerted on a body by gravity
Define energy ability to do work
How is energy measured? joules or electron volts
Define radiation transfer of energy
4 types of natural/environmental radiation cosmic rays, terrestrial, internal radionuclides, radon
When, how and by whom were xrays discovered? 1895 by Roentgen using Crooke's tube
Who developed 1st fluoroscope and when? 1898 by Edison
What was urged in 1904 by Rollins? collimation and ALARA
What combined in 1913? Snook transformer & Coolidge tube
3 basic quantities mass (kg), time (s), length (m)
Every measurement must have what 2 components? magnitude & unit
What are Newton's 3 laws? inertia, force, action/reaction
3 ways heat is transferred? conduction, convection, radiation
Air kerma (Gy) unit of radiation exposure/intensity
Gray (Gy) unit of radiation absorbed dose
Sievert (Sv) unit of occupational exposure and effective dose
Becquerel (Bq) unit of radioactivity
Air kerma= roentgen (R) x .01
Gray= rad x .01
Sievert= rem x .01
Becquerel= curie (Ci) x 3.7x10^10

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
