RAD 156 Week 5

QuestionAnswer
The force between two magnetic poles is___________ to the strength of the poles Directly Proportional
The force between two magnetic poles is__________ to the square of the distance separating them Inversely Proportional
Explain the Hans Oersted Experiment When he made electric current flow through a wire, the needle of a nearby compass deflected
Magnetic Induction- Whenever electrons move, they create a magnetic field that surrounds their path
the field is always________ to the current Perpendicular
Conventional Electric current follows the Flow of Positives
In Radiography, we follow the Flow of Electrons
The magnetic field is always at_______ to the current Right Angles
The magnetic field is________ at the center Strongest
Electromagnetic Induction- creating an electric field using magnets and a conductor
Mutual Induction- An electric current is induced in the second coil by the moving magnetic field of the current in the first coil Requires 2 coils
Self Induction- When an electric current goes through a coil, a growing magnetic field is created which expands outward from the center of the coil, Requires only one coil
A coil initially_______ in its own current Resists Changes
Autotransformers operate on Self Induction
Step Transformers operate on Mutual Induction
Shell Core- Has 2 separate magnetic paths
Closed Core- Has a closed continuous magnetic path, all in one direction
What Transformer Core Construction is used in X-Ray Circuits Closed Core
Primary Step Up coil = less turns
Primary Step Down coil= more turns
Secondary Step Up coil= more turns
Secondary Step Down coil= less turns
Step Up Coils- Increase Voltage and Decrease Current
Step Down Coils- Decrease Voltage and Increase Current
Solenoid- A coiled wire with a very strong magnetic field at the center
What happens if we curve the wire? The fields will not overlap – they change shape
Conventional Right Hand Rule Right thumb points in the direction of the “positive” current, fingers curl in the direction of the magnetic field
Radiography Method Right thumb points in the direction of the negative end of the conductor, fingers curl in the direction of the magnetic field

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.
