Unfortunatley I cannot post this question in the Homework section (not sure why) so I hope its OK if I post here and show work as appropriate
< Mentor Note -- thread moved to HH from the technical physics forums, so no HH Template is shown >
QUESTRION State two design features in an X-ray tube that help maintain a high intensity output while keeping a small focal spot size
MY ANSWER
(1) The nickel block supporting the cathode helps focus the x-ray beam
(2) the rotating anode means heat dissapation is possible and a small focal spot can be used.
Are these both correct? Are there others? thanks
