transformer
Filament circuit - Answer-........
What is thermionic emission based on? - Answer-temperature of the filament
What is it measured in? - Answer-amperes
Filaments operate at how many amps and how many volts? - Answer-3-6 amps
6-12 volts
Voltage from the mA station is delivered to the ______________ transformer which is a
step _________ - Answer-filament
down
A lower voltage means a ___________ current to the filament - Answer-higher
What determines how many xrays are created? - Answer-number of electrons
number of electrons is determined by the temperature of the filament. the hotter the
filament the more electrons
