Which type of screen presentation displays a profile or crosssectional view of the test specimen? A-scan B-scan C-scan All of the above
Artificial flaws can be produced by using: Side drilled holes Flat bottom holes EDM notches All of the above
Mode conversion, occurs when a sound wave encounters an interface between materials of different acoustic impedance and: One of the two materials is a liquid The incident angle is greater than the first critical angle The incident angle is greater than the second critical angle The incident angle is not normal to the interface
What is used to support the active element and dampen the transducers characteristics? Resin Oil Backing material with a similar the impedance of the transducer Any of the above will work
The material of the reference standard used to setup for a flaw inspection: Can be made from similar material as long as the velocity is the same Should be the same material being inspected Must have the same impedance values as the base material Can only be used once
When an ultrasound wave passes through an interface between two materials at an oblique angle, and the materials have different indices of refraction, it produces:

The purpose of the backing material in a transducer is to: Direct the sound out of the transducer Provide impedance matching between the active element and the test component Control the ringing of the active element None of the above
13
What is used to establish a general level of consistency in measurements, and to help interpret and quantify the information contained in the received signal? Reference standards Industry standards Accuracy standards Modeling standards
14
The first critical angle describes the condition where the: The angle of the refracted longitudinal wave is less than 90o The angle of the refracted longitudinal wave is exactly 90o The angle of the refracted longitudinal wave is greater than 90
o

19
When a single element transducer is operating in the pulse echo mode, the element: Can not start receiving reflected signals until the element has stopped ringing from its transmit function Needs to have a high pulse rate Should be used in the dual mode Can only be made with lithium sulfate
