what is the tungsten usually made with?

A

Rhenium tungsten alloy

17
Q

The target of a rotating anode tube is powered by an ???

A

induction motor

18
Q

why is molybdenum/ graphite used in the rotating tube

A

because it is lighter, less density making the anode lighter and easy to rotate

19
Q

Area of the anode struck by the electrons from the cathode

A

Target

20
Q

Entire rotating disk length

A

5-13 cm

21
Q

Induction motor has 2 parts

A

Stator and rotor

22
Q

Difference between the stator and the rotor

A

The stator is the part outside made out of electromagnets that equally space around the length of the tube

The rotor is the part inside it is made out of copper and soft iron

23
Q

the rotor is made out of

A

copper and soft iron
