1. Highly resistant bacterial and mycotic (fungal) spores are not killed during disinfection procedures. 2. however, highly resistant bacterial and mycotic spores are killed during sterilization.

The contaminated barriers should be removed while the dental radiographer is wearing gloves.  The barriers should be disposed of.

You are 36 years old.  What is your cumulative occupational dose recommended by the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP)?

The formula for total kinetic energy tells us that the energy released by the incident electron at the anode results primarily from:

With a 75-kVp exposure, the energy of the photons displayed on the continuous emission spectrum can range from just above 0 to:

Of the three spectra:

An increase in ______________________________ will ONLY cause an increase in the amplitude of the emissions spectrum curve.

The higher the ____________________________________________________of the target material used in the  anode, the  more efficient  it is at “capturing” projectile electrons and  more x-rays are  produced.

According to the diagram shown (which was published in 2000, which we will call “today”), how much more Earth (sediment) is moved per capita today in the USA as compared to the “World Today”.  Express your answer as a multiple of the “World Today”.  In other words, if your answer is “twice as much” or 2x, then enter “2”, whereas if you think it is 100 times the “World Today”, then enter “100”.
