Distinction assignment from BTEC Applied Science Unit 21- medical physics application. 21AB includes the principles, production, benefits, and uses of both ionising and non ionising radiation in medical applications. explains how they are used for diagnosis and treatment of diseases and why they are justified.

A Wave - Correct answer-is something that transfers energy from one place to another without transferring any matter over that distance Longitudinal waves - Correct answer-A wave where the oscillations are parallel to the direction that the wave transfers energy. Examples; Sound waves, P-waves after earthquakes Transverse waves - Correct answer-A wave where oscillations are perpendicular to the direction that the wave transfers energy. E.g. all Electro magnetic waves on the EM spectrum. e...
