Effects of Electric Energy
An example of a specific action performed by a device
Electrotherapy
Vibration of energy
Example: Ultrasound
Chemical is
Energy stored in atoms and molecules
Example: natural gas
The more resistance, drag or friction there will be in the line, which equals
increased heat
Alternating current flows first
one direction and then the other
The two types of currents used in esthetic electrotherapy
Direct and Alternating
Light is
Radiant energy, electromagnetic radiation
Example: Solar Radiation
Elastic is
Energy stored in objects
Examples: spring or stretched rubber band
The transfer of heat via direct contact
Conduction
Motors with magnetic fields have
positive and negative poles
Alternating current with the sine waveforms and low frequency
Sinusoidal
Heat is
Vibration of molecules within a substance
Example: Steamer
Nuclear is
Energy stored in the nucleus of an atom
Example: Nuclear power
The transfer of heat via liquid or gas
Convection
Electrical generator push alternating current through
the conductor
Length of time that current is flowing
Pulse
Electricity is
Movement of electrons, protons and neutrons
Example: Wax Warmer
Gravitational is
Energy stored in a position or place
Example: Stored water behind a dam
The transfer of heat through a vacuum (empty space)
Radiation
Electrochemical Effects
Number of electrical pulses delivered to the body in one second
Frequency
Energy of Motion
Potential means
Stored Energy
The thermal breakdown of the skin
Pyrolysis
This can be achieved when two or more effects of electric energy are produced at the same time
combination effect
