Basic Of Electricity 2

Subject : engineering
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Aparatus that changes alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC).






2. A difference in electrical charge in one region compared to another






3. Also known as electromagnetic spectum of radiation; name given to all of the forms of energy (or radiation) that exist.






4. Abbreviated UV light and and also known as cold light or actinic light; invisble light that has a short wavelength (giving it higher energy) is less penetrating then visisble light - causes chemical reactions to act more quickly than visisble light -






5. Infared light has no longer wavelenght - penetrates and more deeply - has less energy - and produeces more heat then vivsisble light; makes up 60% of natural light.






6. The part of electromagnetic spectrum that can be seen. vivsible light only makes up 35% of natural sun light






7. Negative electrode of an electrotherapy device; the cathode is usually black and is marked with an N or a minus (-) sign.






8. Flow of a electricity of a conductor.






9. Constant and direct current - having a positive and negative pole - that produces chemical changes when it passes through the tissues and fluids of the body.






10. Abbreviated V and also known as voltage; unit that messure the pressuer or force that pushes electric current forward throught a conductor.






11. Completes an elctric circuit and carries the current safety away.






12. Abbreviated AC; rapid and interrupted current - flowing first in one direction and then in the opposite; produced by mechanical means and charges directions 60 times per second.






13. Currents used in electrical facil and scalp treatments






14. An exstremely level of electricity that mirrors the body natural electrical impules.






15. Substance that speed up chemical reactions.






16. Any material that conducts electricity.






17. Also known as insulator; a material that does not transmit electricity.






18. Charged particles travel through this gradient






19. Also known as violet ray; thermal heat producing current with a high rate of oscillation or vibration thats is commonly used for scalp and facial treatmeants






20. Swith that automatclly interrupts or shut off an electric circuit at the first indication of overload.






21. A measure of factors that inhibit the flow of electricity






22. Process of infusing an alkaline (negative) product into the tissues from the negative pole toward the positive pole.






23. Meassurements of the distance between two wavelength.






24. Process of infusing water - soluble products into the skin with the use of electric current - such as the use of positive and negative poles of a galvanic machine.






25. Opposite pole from the electrode.






26. Negative pole or positive pole of an electric current






27. Also known as phototherapy; the application of light rays to the skin for the treatment of wrinkles - capillaries - pigmentation - or hair removal.






28. Light at either end of the spectrum of light that is invisisble to the naked eye.






29. Abbreviated mA; 1/1 -000 of an ampere






30. Process of fusing an acidic (positive) product into deeper tissue using galvanic current from the positive pole toward the negative pole.






31. Abbreviated W; unit that messure how much electric energy is being used in one second






32. Positively charged particles are repelled by what regions






33. The movement of particles around an aton that creates pur energy.






34. Gradients that make up the electrochemical gradient






35. Abbriviated DC; constant - even - flowing current thta travels in one direction only and is produced by chemicals means.






36. Movement of charged particles






37. Distance between successive peaks of elctromagnetic waves.






38. Aparatus that changes direct current to alternating current






39. A color componet within the skin such as blood or melanin.






40. A medical device thtat uses mutiple color and wavelenghts (broad spectrum) of focus light to treat spider veins - hyperpigmentation - rosacea - and redness - wrenkles - enlarged hairfollocles and pores - and ecessive hair.






41. Electrode of anelectherapy device that is used on the area to be treated






42. Also known a probe; applicator for directing electric current from a electrotherapy device to the clents skin.






43. Abbreviated and also known as amp; unit that measures the strength of an electric current.






44. Abbreviated LED; a medical device used to reduce acne - increase skin circulation - and improve the collagen content in the skin.






45. Prevents excessive current from passing through a circuit.






46. Abbriviated K; 1 -000 watts






47. Process that turns the light from a medical laser device into heat.






48. Positively charged particles are attracted to what regions






49. The path of negative and positive electric currents moving from the source through me the conductors and back to the generating source
