quiz 5 rad phys Flashcards

1
Q

Customary vs SI table

A

exposure: roetgen (R) = air kerma (Gya)
absorbed dose; Rad (rad) = gray (Gyt)
effective dose: Rem (rem) = Sievert (Sv)
radioactivity: Curie (Ci) = Becquerel (Bq)

Q

4 laws associated with electric charges and how they interact with each other and neutral objects

A
  1. unlike charges attract - like charges repel
  2. electric field is associated with each electric charge
  3. when 2 similar electric charges are brought close together, their electric fields are in opposite directions, which causes charges to repel each other
  4. when unlike charges are close together, electric fields radiate in the same direction and cause 2 charges to attract each other

Q

electric potential

A

electric charges, measured in volts (V) and joule/coulomb
1v=1 J/C
high voltage= greater potential
