What is mAs in radiology?
mA (millamps) x Time (seconds) = mAsmA Tube CurrentThe second control of the output of the x-ray tube is called the mA (milliamperage) control. This control determines how much current is allowed to flow through the filament which is the cathode side of the tube. If more current (and therefore more heating) is allowed to pass through the filament, more electrons will be available in the "space charge" for acceleration to the target and this will result in a greater flux of photons when the high voltage circuit is energized. The effect of the mA circuit is quite linear. If you want to double the number of "x" photons produced by the tube, you can do that by simply doubling the mA. Changing the number of photons produced will affect the blackness of the film but will not affect the film contrast.S TimeThe third control of the x-ray tube which is used for medical imaging is the exposure timer. This is usually denoted as an "S" (exposure time in seconds) and is combined with the mA control. The combined function is usually referred to as mAs or milliampere seconds so, if you wanted to give an exposure using 10 milliampere seconds you could use a 10 mA current with a 1.0 second exposure or a 20 mA current for a 0.5 second exposure or any combination of the two which would result in the number 10. Both of these factors and their combination affect the film in a linear way. That is, if you want to double film blackness you could just double the mAs.

How do you calculate mph from seconds?
MPH = miles per hour. In order to calculate hours from seconds, you just need to know that there are 3,600 seconds in an hour.
How hot does water have to be before you get burnt?
Assuming water boils at 212oF. Exposure at 140oF for five seconds will cause thermal injury to the skin. At 150oF, exposure for two seconds will cause injury

The duration of Northern Exposure is 2700.0 seconds.
How long does it take a current of 5 milliAmpere to deliver 15 coulomb of charge?
Charge = (current) x (time)Time = charge/current = 15/0.005 = 3,000 seconds = 50 minutes .
