Answer to Question 1

line voltage compensator

Rationale: A line voltage compensator functions to increase or decrease voltage if there is a drop or surge in the line voltage, as this directly affects the output of radiation.

Answer to Question 2

fixed kVp technique chart

Rationale: Fixed kVp technique charts use a specific kVp value for specific examinations, but allow for mAs to be altered when patient size and condition are factored in.
