In an induction motor, the only part that rotates is:

  • Cathode
  • Electromagnet
  • Rotor
  • Stator
  • Wire loop

rotor

If DC current is better for the x-ray tube, why can we not just use DC from the beginning of the x-ray circuit instead of rectifying an AC current?

transformer would not work

300
  • What is the purpose of the filament circuit?

to heat the filaments

300
  • The process by which outer-shell electrons of the filament atoms are “boiled off” resulting in the liberation of electrons in the x-ray tube:
  • Thermionic emission  
300

When radiographing a wedge shaped anatomical structure such as a femur, the thicker portion of the anatomy should be positioned:

under cathode
