| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The movement of particles around an atom that creates energy is: | Electricity |
| The creation of energy from the movement of particles around an atom is: | Electricity |
| When in motion, electricity has three effects thermal, magnetic and: | Chemical |
| The flow of electricity along a conductor is called a/an: | Electric Current |
| Any material that allows electricity to easily flow through it is called a/an: | Conductor |
| Silver is an example of a: | Conductor |
| Another term for a nonconductor is a/an: | Insulator |
| Materials that prevents the flow of electricity to go through them, are known as a/an: | Insulators |
| Which of the following materials would be a good nonconductor or insulator: | Rubber |
| Certain liquids can be insulators too, such as alcohol, oil and: | Distilled Water |
| When electrons flows from the source to a load and back to the source, it is known as al an: | Complete Circuit |
| When you plug in your facial machine, turn it on and use it, you have an example of a/an: | Closed Circuit |
| Cellular phones and flashlights use the current that flows only in one direction, known as: | Direct current |
| When electrons flow in one direction and then in the opposite direction it is known as a/an: | Alternating Current |
| Which electrical current has electrons that flow in only one direction, have a constant, even flow and are produced by chemical means. | Direct Current |
| An apparatus that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) is called a: | Convertor |
| The force or pressure of an electrical current passing through a conductor is known as a/an: | Volt |
| An Amp or Ampere is a unit that measures the _______ of an electrical current | Strength |
| The current used for skin treatments is measured in: | Milliampere |

| A conductor used to bring the electric current from the appliance to the client is the: | Electrode |
| Exposure to light rays to produce therapeutic effects on a person: | Light Therapy |
| Indicates the different poles (positive or negative) of an electrical current | Polarity |
| The direct current that has a chemical effect on the body: | Galvanic |
| This light produces heat and used in facials or as an aid to processing haircolor: | Infrared |
| This light is less penetrating, produces germicidal effects and has the shortest wavelengths in the light spectrum | Ultraviolet |
| The distance between peaks of electromagnetic waves are called: | Wavelengths |
