100 Becquerel (Bq) = 100 disintegration/second (dis/s)

Given a 10 µCi of a radioactive sample (T1/2 = 10 days), the radioactivity will be approximately
2.5 µCi after 20 days
1000 µCi = 37 MBq
The number of half-lives required to reduce the activity of 1/16 of the original amount is
4
How much Tc-99m will remain after 4 physical half-lives if the initial activity was 10 mCi?
Answer: 0.625 mCi
A Photon is a small bundle of energy traveling through space at the speed of light
20
A 1000 keV x-ray photon has a frequency of 2.42X10 Hz and a wavelength of
0.0124 Angstrom (Å)
The velocity of ultrasound in tissue is 1540 m/s. If 10 MHz transducer is used, the wavelength of
the ultrasound is 0.154 millimeter (mm)
A radioactive source has a half-life of 24h. If 50 MBq is present on Monday at 12NN, how much
will remain on Friday at 12 NN? Answer: 3.125 MBq
The special unit of wavelength for electromagnetic radiation is Angstrom (Å)
Ionizing radiations are capable of ionizing matter which they interact
The formula that expresses the relationship between wavelength, frequency, and velocity is
Speed of Light
The energy of a particulate radiation is in a form of
The difference between x-rays and gamma rays is their Origin
All ionizing radiation can be classified as Particulate Radiation and
Electromagnetic Radiation
8
The speed of light is equal to 3x10 m/s
For the electromagnetic radiation, frequency and wavelength are Inversely proportional
8
The velocity of light is 300X10 cm/s
An electromagnetic radiation which is the least energetic is the Radiowave
The energy of an x-ray photon is directly proportional to its Frequency and
inversely proportional to its Wavelength
The photon energy of an x-ray of wavelength 10 nanometer (nm) is 0.124 keV
An electromagnetic radiation which has the longest wavelength is the Radiowave
