TERMS
A FORM OF ENERGY THAT PRODUCES LIGHT, HEAT, MAGNETIC AND CHEMICAL CHANGES
What is ELECTRICITY
A UNIT OF ELECTRIC STRENGTH
What is an AMP
ELECTRONS MOVE IN ONE DIRECTION, LIKE USING GALVANIC
What is DIRECT CURRENT
Power source most often used in a salon, spa or barbershop; produces alternating current; uses mechanical energy to produce a flow of electrons
What is GENERATOR
The transfer of energy to give an object the energy to perform work (for example, brush machine, vacuum/spray machine and microdermabrasion).
What is Mechanical effect
THE MOVEMENT OF ELECTRICITY ALONG A PATH
What is ELECTRIC CURRENT
What is a VOLT
ELECTRONS FLOW FIRST IN ONE DIRECTION THEN ANOTHER, USED IN HIGH FREQUENCY
What is ALTERNATING CURRENT
a reusable safety device that breaks the flow of current when an overload occurs
What is circuit breaker
Increased sensitivity of the skin to light; can be caused by medication, disease and topical products.
What is Photosensitivity?
RATE OF CYCLING OR FREQUENCY
What is HERTZ
A UNIT OF ELECTRIC RESISTANCE
What is an OHM
WHEN TOO MANY APPLIANCES ARE ON A CIRCUIT AND BEING OPERATED AT SAME TIME, CAN CAUSE FIRE
What is OVERLOAD
A type of low-level electrical current used to stimulate muscles to tone and firm the skin.
What is microcurrent
Electric current traveling through a water-based solution to produce relaxing or stimulating effects.
What is electrochemical effect
MATERIAL THAT ALLOWS ELECTRICITY TO FLOW THROUGH IT EASILY
What is CONDUCTOR
A MEASURE OF HOW MUCH POWER IS BEING USED PER SECOND
What is a WATT
A FOREIGN CONDUCTOR COMES IN CONTACT WITH A WIRE CARRYING CURRENT TO THE LOAD (LIKE WHEN YOUR FINGER GETS BETWEEN WALL SOCKET + PLUG AND SHOCKS YOU)
What is SHORT CIRCUIT
Type of device that produces multiple effects (for example, ultrasonic device and multifunction machine).
What is combination effect?
Short pulse of light and heat break up target molecules.
What is Photomechanical
A MATERIAL THAT DOES NOT ALLOW THE FLOW OF ELECTRIC CURRENT
What is an INSULATOR
1,000 WATTS
What is a KILLOWAT
A SAFETY DEVICE WITH A FINE METAL WIRE THAT ALLOWS CURRENT TO FLOW
What is a FUSE
Thermal breakdown of the skin; evident when a blister forms on burned skin.
What is Pyrolysis
Reaction with light and molecules in the body that cause a chemical change or cellular stimulation (for example, formation of vitamin D within the skin).
What is Photochemical
