100
This chart determines the tube capacity for a single exposure.
What is the tube rating chart?
100
This is where the rectifier is located in the x-ray circuit.
What is between the high-voltage transformer and the x-ray tube?
100
The electronic timer utilizes this in its operation.
What is self-induction?
100
This is the speed of light and the speed at which x-rays travel.
What is 186,000 miles/sec.?
200
These are the three technical factors that must be set on a control panel for an x-ray to be made.
What are mA, kVp, and exposure time?
200
These are the three items that are considered inherent filtration.
What is the collimator mirror, the glass tube, and the oil surrounding the tube?
200
This is what the filament is surrounded by.
What is a negatively charges focusing cup?
200
Self-induction and mutual induction are the two types of this.
What is electromagnetic induction?
200
Photons are bundles of energy that this travels in.
What is electromagnetic radiation?
300
This terminates the exposure if the automatic exposure system should fail.
What is the back-up timer?
300
mA is associated with the quantity of x-rays produced and is also the unit to measure this.
What is tube current?
300
This is where thermionic emission occurs.
What is the cathode?
300
Electromagnetic energy and radiation are expressed in these types of waves.
What are sine waves?
300
Radiation protection is the primary purpose of this in the tube.
What is filtration?
400
This is the number of exposures that should be made during a warm-up procedure.
What is 3?

This is the definition of thermionic emission.
What is the boiling off of electrons from the filament when current is applied?
400
The rectifier is composed of these.
What is solid state silicon-based diodes?
400
This is the relationship of wavelength and frequency to each other.
What is inversely proportional to each other?
400
This is the formula to calculate the heat produced by an exposure made on a high-frequency generator.
What is mA x time(sec) x kVp x 1.45?
500
This is the length of time between exposures in a warm-up procedure.
