What is the equation for turns ratio as it pertains to voltage?
Ns/Np=Vs/Vp
What is the equation for turns ratio as it pertains to current
Ns/Np=Ip/Is
The relationship between turns ratio and current?
Inversely proportional
Relationship between turns ratio and voltage
Directly proportional
Step up transformers have a turns ratio greater than or less than 1?
Greater than
Step down transformers have a turns ratio greater than or less than 1
Less than
Self induction
The induction of a opposing EMF in AC coil by its own magnetic field.
What are the two types of AECs
Ionization chamber type and photomultiplier tube type
Line compensation
Adjusting voltage in X-ray system to keep it value
What are the manual timers
Mechanical, synchronous, electronic and mas timers
What is a mechanical timer
Operating by clockwork. Min exposure time .25s
Synchronous timers
Also mechanical depends on electric motor 60 revs/s. Exposure multiples of 1/60
Electronic timers
As short as 1ms controls mas. Highly accurate.
MÁS timers
Monitor current through tube and located
Has extra free electrons
N-type
