Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

A substance characterized by its resistivity falling between that of insulators and conductors is extensively employed in the realm of solid-state devices.  

The dispersion of radiation caused by the substance that emits the radiation.  

During the operation, the negative phase is directly connected to the anode of the x-ray tube, enabling the flow of electrons solely from the cathode to the anode in the positive phase while interrupting the electron flow in the negative phase.  

The generation of an electromotive force (emf) within a circuit through the presence of a fluctuating current in that very circuit.  

The property of inductance that generates an induced electromotive force (emf) within the same circuit due to a variation in the flow of electric current.  

A deprecated solid-state rectifier made of semiconductor materials that was utilized in the early 1960s for x-ray systems powered by three-phase generators.  

A coil of wire in a transformer that acquires energy through electromagnetic induction from the primary coil. It is alternatively referred to as the secondary winding.  

A subatomic particle discharged due to the collision of an incident electron with a substance.  

The utilization of a swift film changer in specialized procedure examinations holds substantial significance. This ingenious device finds application in both singular and dual-plane angiographic examinations.
