RADT 450 Final (All Correct)

If the SID is reduced by half, how is the x-ray intensity at the image affected? correct answers it is increased 4 times a diode allows electrons to flow ___. correct answers from cathode to anode most of the heat generated at the target is due to ___. correct answers outer-shell excitation in modern imaging systems, the components for rectification are ___. correct answers solid state semiconductors what will occur as a result of decreasing the anode target angle? correct answers the effective focal spot size will decrease, and greater photon intensity will be toward the cathode side of the x-ray tube tube failure can occur from ___. correct answers long exposure times the first component to receive power in the x-ray circuit is the ___. correct answers autotransformer at the end of the characteristic cascade, the ___ shell is missing an electron correct answers outermost characteristic x-rays are produced by ___. correct answers released binding energy each of the following is a material of choice for the filament except correct answers copper the production of heat at the anode is directly proportional to correct answers filament current thermionic emission at the filament creates a ___. correct answers space charge an exposure taken at 100kVp would have a continuous emission spectrum with a maximum energy of ___ keV. correct answers 100 the difference in the waveform between the primary and secondary sides of the high voltage transformer is the ___. correct answers amplitude the most common diagnostic radiography target angle is __ degrees correct answers 12 the k-shell can hold a maximum of __ electrons correct answers 2 how does added filtration affect the emission spectrum? correct answers reduced amplitude and a shift to the right
