Ultrasonic Testing 9

This document contains 12 multiple choice questions regarding ultrasonic testing principles and calculations. The questions cover topics such as: 1. Calculating defect depth and standoff distance given probe angle and detected range. 2. Calculating defect depth and detection range based on probe angle and material thickness. 3. Calculating wavelength given probe frequency and material compression wave velocity. 4. Determining the minimum frequency required to detect a fatigue crack of a given size. 5. Calculating wavelength in a different material while keeping probe parameters the same. 6. Calculating beam angle given probe diameter, frequency, and material velocity. 7. Determining which probe parameter set yields the smallest beam
