Geiger-Muller tube is instruments requires you test three times the background of the work area.
<u>Explanation</u>:
These detectors are gas filled detectors and hence requires time for responding to the value. This time is taken because during this period it collects the electric charges and features of the electric circuit. It also gets stabilized during this period. This device has thumb rule i.e one must wait or hold for at the least 3 times the time constant before getting the precise and accurate reading. The time constant order is 10 seconds for the ionization chamber but for the Geiger counter it can vary from seconds to greater than 20 seconds
When the patient with emphysema was
selected lung values changed (from those of the normal patient) in the
spirogram are:
ERV, IRV, RV, FVC, FEV1, FEV1 %
<span>The reason behind the changes of these values are due to the loss or inability of electric recoil. A spirogram (graph
like structure obtained by the respiratory movements) is measured by
spirometer.</span>
Answer:
this process is called transformation, and for the first time, Frederick Griffith observed this process, but he could not explain it.
