MCQ
X-ray incident on a material:
  • A
    Exerts a force on it.
  • B
    Transfers energy to it.
  • C
    Transfers momentum to it.
  • D
    Transfers impulse to it.

Answer

  1. Exerts a force on it.
  2. Transfers energy to it.
  3. Transfers momentum to it.
  4. Transfers impulse to it.

Explanation:

An X-ray exerts force on the material on which it is incident. For example, it can penetrate into metals. An X-ray also transfers energy, momentum and impulse to the material on which it incident. Therefore, all options are correct.
