23
Q

Energy

A

Ability to do work

24
Q

A

Result of a force acting upon an object over a distance.

work = force x distance

25
Q

c

A

Speed of Light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

or 186,400 miles/s

26
Q

Excitation

A

When EM energy transferring energy to an atom (where electrons are moved to a higher energy state without being removed from the atom)

27
Q

A

4.15 x 10^-15 eV-sec

30
Q

12 Characteristics of X-Rays

A
  1. Highly penetrating and invisible rays that’re a form of EM radiation
  2. Electrically neutral and, therefore, not affected by either electric/magnetic fields
  3. Can be produced over wide variety of energies and wavelengths (polyenergetic and heterogenous)
  4. Release very small amounts of heat upon passing through matter
  5. Travel in straight lines
  6. Travel at light speed
  7. Can ionize matter
  8. Cause fluorescence (emission of light) of certain crystals
  9. Cannot be focused by a lens
  10. Affect photographic film
  11. Produce chemical and biological changes in matter through excitation/ionization
  12. Produce secondary/scatter radiation
