Student Build Area
Drag components from the left. Choose Wire, then click one orange port and another orange port to connect them.
Goal: build the 220V input, breaker, control circuit, student-made four-diode rectifier, filament circuit, filament, and anode.

β¨ X-Ray Production
The filament glows when the filament circuit is complete.
Electrons leave the heated filament and travel toward the positive anode.
X-rays are produced at the anode when electrons strike the target.
Teaching note: about 99% heat, about 1% x-rays.
π Assessment Mode
