High atomic weight metals, such as tungsten, are used to produce X-rays because they have a greater ability to absorb and scatter high-energy photons. Their dense atomic structure leads to a higher efficiency in converting electron energy into X-rays during the process of electron bombardment. Additionally, the high atomic number results in a greater number of available electrons for interaction, leading to increased X-ray production and more effective imaging capabilities. This property makes them ideal for use in X-ray tubes.
What else can I help you with?
Do solar flares prouduce xrays and radio waves and clouds of atomic particles?
Because of the radiasion
Can tungsten block x-ray?
Yes and no. It is a dense metal but the xrays would react with the molecules in tungsten and that causes more xrays. This reaction is called compton scatter.
What do xrays have to do with the holocaust?
They experimented with xrays on the prisoners in the concentration camps. Mostly at Auschwitz.
How much does a series of knee xrays cost?
I just got my xrays taken for my left knee, it was four xrays for $100, it may be more other places
Bad when pregnant and take xrays?
Xrays are damaging to developing babies. Only as last resort.
What do you call a person who does xrays?
a person who translates your xrays is called a radiologist.
Did they have xrays in the civil war?

How does a nurse use math in x ray?
They dont, nurses dont take xrays! Radiologic technologist take xrays!
Are xrays used at airports?
YES
Are xrays radiant energy?
Yes.
Do xrays get through earths atmosphere?
no.
What is a photographic image produced by the action of xrays or nuclear radiation?
A photographic image produced by the action of xrays or nuclear radiation is called a radiograph.
