Question
Answer
show I1/I2=D2(squared)/D1(spuared).  
🗑
show Linear Nonthreshold ("all or nothing").  
🗑
show are those that will not occur below a particular threshold dose and that increase in severity as the dose increases.  
🗑
show 50 mSv (5 rem or 5000 mrem).  
🗑
show 1 mSv (100 mrem or 0.1 rem).  
🗑
The annual occupational dose equivalent limit for the lens of the eye   show
🗑
The annual occupational dose equivalent limit for the skin and extremities   show
🗑
show is 5 mSv (0.5 rem or 500 mrem).  
🗑
show a relatively low-energy incident photon uses all of its energy to eject an inner-shell electron, leaving a vacancy. An electron from the next shell will drop to fill the vacancy, and a characteristic ray is given up in the transition.  
🗑
Compton scatter   show
🗑
Classical Scatter   show
🗑
show is another name for classical scatter  
🗑
show Compton Scatter  
🗑
The following formula is used to determine Effective Dose (E):   show
🗑
The Radiation Weighting Factor (Wr)   show
🗑
The Tissue Weighting Factor (Wt)   show
🗑
Inverse Square Law   show
🗑
show those induced in the irradiated body.  
🗑
show effects that may not appear for many of years.  
🗑
Isobars are   show
🗑
show have the same number of neutrons but different atomic numbers.  
🗑
Isomers   show
🗑
show the dose-effect relationship.  
🗑
show rem (Sv).  
🗑
Explain Linear Dose-response curve   show
🗑
Explain The nonlinear/sigmoidal dose-response curve   show
🗑
Rad measures   show
🗑
Roentgen is   show
🗑
Rem is   show
🗑
The unit of measurement used to express occupational exposure is the   show
🗑
show the unit of radioactivity, describing disintegrations per second.  
🗑
Describe X-rays used for Diagnostic purposes:   show
🗑
Isotpes are   show
🗑
Radiation-induced malignancy, leukemia, and genetic effects are   show
🗑
show Acute Radiation Syndrome.  
🗑
show occurs when there is partial transfer of the proton's energy to matter, as in the Compton effect.  
🗑
show when an x-ray photon interacts with matter and disappears, as in the photoelectric effect.  
🗑
The reduction in the intensity (quantity) of an x-ray beam, as it passes through matter, is termed   show
🗑
Divergence refers   show
🗑
show those effects experienced directly by the exposed individual, such as erythema, epilation, and cataracts.  
🗑
Genetic effects of radiation exposure are caused by   show
🗑
What are some secondary barriers   show
🗑
show those that will not occur below a particular threshold dose and that increase in severity as the dose increases.  
🗑
Describe Stochactic Effects   show
🗑
