Question
Answer
show About 0.5mm  
🗑
show The result that occurs when an electron in an inner shell is knocked from its orbit by a projectile electron.  
🗑
Bremsstrahlung   show
🗑
show A packet of energy that has no mass; all electromagnetic energy, including light and x-rays, is in the form of photons.  
🗑
Binding energy   show
🗑
show True  
🗑
In a characteristic interaction, only one vacancy is created and filled per atom. T or F?   show
🗑
At what point is a characteristic photon created?   show
🗑
show one-third of the kVp selected at the control panel  
🗑
if 60 kVp is selected on a control panel, what will the beam be made up of?   show
🗑
What is the average energy of a beam produced at 60kVp?   show
🗑
show 10keV brems photon  
🗑
If a filament electron passes through an atom and leaves with the same energy it entered with, what is produced?   show
🗑
What causes a brem photon to be produced?   show
🗑
show A continuum of electromagnetic energy, including light, x-rays, and radio waves, listed in order of energy, frequency, and wavelength  
🗑
Added filtration   show
🗑
Which portion of the discrete emission spectrum is represented on the x-ray emission spectrum?   show
🗑
What will a change in the kVp do to the height of the spectrum?   show
🗑
What happens to filament electrons after they interact with atoms?   show
🗑
Only L shell electrons can fill K shell vacancies. T or F   show
🗑
If filling a K shell vacancy, Which shell electron would produce the highest characteristic photon?   show
🗑
show True  
🗑
show L  
🗑
show Increases  
🗑
Brems is the interaction that occurs more often. T or F?   show
🗑
Where is the discrete line placed on an x-ray emission spectrum for a tungsten target?   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
