IS THE FILAMENT THE SOURCE ELECTRONS
YES
INCREASING KVP INCREASES SPEED OR ENERGY LEVEL OF ELECTRONS INCREASE
TRUE OR FALSE
True

TRUE
Heat production also increases directly with increasing kVp, TRUE OR FALSE
True
False
TRUE
ELECTRON COMING FROM L TO K SHELL RELEASES THE SAME ENERGY IN PHOTONS AS IN THE K SHELL
True
False
TRUE
“Characteristic x-rays can be produced in a tungsten target only when the kVp is set at 60 or greater TRUE OR FALSE
70 OR GREATER FALSE
At greater than 70 kVp, approximately 85% of the beam consists of bremsstrahlung interactions.
spectrum refers to
the range of … values of any quantity such as x-rays
HETEROGENOUS

HETER 1
POLY MANY
WILL U HAVE A LOWER OR HIGHER BELL POINT IN Bremmsstrahlung IF U INCREASE Ma
HIGHER
IF YOU INCREASE kVP YOUR Bremmsstrahlung MOVES
TO THE RIGHT
Added filtration DOES WHAT
PREVENTS LOW PHOTONS FROM BEING ABSORBED AND INCREASE CHANCE FOR BIOLOGICAL DAMAGE
