Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During an X-ray exposure, a large percentage of the electrical energy is converted into thermal energy or heat. This is because X-ray production is an inefficient process, with only a small percentage of the electrical energy being converted into X-rays. The rest is dissipated as heat, mostly in the form of the anode.
