ASNT Level-III RT Questions in Exam

First 10 questions were to be replied wrt procedure given along with


Reference data

2 Questions were relating to calculating Equivalent sensitivity using


nomograph.
In one question figure was shown & thickness of penetrameter was to be
selected from given options.

In another question using same figure( shown as example in ASME section V:


2004 subsection B article 22, SE-1025 page no. 276 & 277).
Method of interpreting nomograph was fully explained in given reference
sheets.

A C

exposure B
to density
KV
Sensitivity is increasing from A to C, B to C
(Points B & C in graph were not sharp as shown)

Specular density is higher than diffuse density

Definition of Bremsstrahlung employed to denote X-Ray producing


mechanism was given in question. Bremsstrahlung was to be selected from
given options.

Coherent scattering process where photon energy is not changed. Rayleigh


scattering

Density increases from 2 to 3. Transmitted light will reduce by 90%


HVT of steel is 1” if 8” of steel shielding is used for Co-60 source of 64 R will
reduce to 0.25 R

Shielding questions asking to reduce exposure rate to 1/100th of original 2TVT

Step wedge exposure & density table was given. HVT was asked

In above question it was asked which given exposure would be higher KV.

Shape of H & D curve is affected by Development was most suitable option

Definition of cold shut, segregation, hot tear and shrinkage with or without
reason was given in four separate questions defects were to be identified.

Very fine discontinuities to be examined in RT using magnifying glass of 3-5 X

Electron emission RT uses Harder X Rays

There were 2 questions for calculating Ug of defect at 2” from top and 1” from
top. SOD, source size and plate thickness was given.

A C

contrast B D

Graininess
KV is increased from 400 to 500 KV effect on radiograph

Motion un-sharpness depend on : slit width and thickness

If size of source is increased intensity per curie is not following the law due to
self absorption

If film is not properly agitated Streaks

Thickness measurement by gamma ray uses the principle of Attenuation

The crystalline structure can be checked by Diffraction method

Pin hole method is used to measure effective X-Ray source size

Lead plate containing pin hole should be at : mid of source and film

Pin hole method is used for max KV : 240 KV


In micro radiography it is important to maintain : smaller source size

Plate type IQIs are used, other most popular type IQI is wire type

Balance the solution balance the pH

Purpose of fixture is to dissolve the un developed silver

When a film packet is opened from stored condition and allowed to cool in dark
room temp. Moisture gets entrapped due to low temp film at dark room
temp.

In gas chamber detector gas used is: N2 CO2, NH3

When a film has received radiation when it was packed it will become fogged
