Cause chemical changes that can kill cells
All of the above
Rate this question:
Have a longer wavelength.
Have a lower frequency.
Have a shorter wavelength.
Are closer in wavelength to infrared rays than light waves.
Rate this question:
Is composed of tungsten.
Reaches temperatures in excess of 1000 degrees C during x-ray production.
Usually has a copper base.

Sound
X-ray energy
Rate this question:
True
False
Rate this question:
True
False
Rate this question:
Rate this question:
Enter the proper exposure settings in the control panel before the final positioning of the animal.
Leave the s-ray unit on at all times to ensure that the filament is heated when the radiograph is requested.
Always leave the x-ray unit in the standby mode.
The technician can do nothing because filament defects are largely the fault of the maufacturer.
Rate this question:
X-rays with longer wavelengths penetrate farther than x-rays with shorter wavelengths.
X-rays with shorter wavelengths penetrate farther than x-rays with longer wavelengths.
