A radiographic exposure with 3700 GBq (100 Ci) source of Ir-192 using source to film distance of 60 cm results in a radiation intensity of 0.12 Gy/h (11.8 R/h) and a radiographic density of 2.5. The intensity of radiation needed to obtain the same density when the source to film distance is changed to120 cm is:
Which of the following is the correct formula to use for calculating geometric unsharpness if F=source size, T=specimen thickness, D=source to object distance and Ug=geometric unsharpness:
A 7.6 cm (3 inches) thick test specimen is radiographed with a source having size of 1.3 cm (1/2 inch), the film is placed in contact with the test specimen. The source to film distance is 40.6 cm (16 inches).The geometric unsharpness obtained is:
Source-to-object distance, object-to-film distance, and source size are the three factors that control the of the radiograph.
Abnormally large grain size in the test material may be indicated by:
If the required exposure time for a 2220 GBq (60 curie) Ir-192 source is 2 minutes, what exposure time would be required at 1110 GBq (30 curie) source:
If the required exposure time for a 1850 GBq (50 curie) Ir-192 source is 4 minutes, what exposure time would be required for 925 GBq (25 curie) source:
At 61 cm (two feet) from a radiation source, radiation intensity is 3 Gy/h (300 R/h). What is the Intensity at 244 cm (8 feet) from the source?
A good Cobalt-60 shot is made on a 7.6 cm (3 inches) steel casting using an exposure time of 10 minutes and a source-to-film distance of 91.5 (36 inches). If it is necessary to change the source-to-film distance to 61 cm (24 inches), what exposure time would produce a similar radiograph if all other conditions remain the same?
If an exposure time of 60 seconds and source to film distance of 365.7 m (1200 feet) is necessary for a particular exposure, what exposure time would be needed for an equivalent exposure if the source- to-film distance is changed to 457.2 m (1500 feet)?
