🗑
material that best transports electricity is an   conductor  
🗑
since silver and copper transmit electricity, they are called   conductors  
🗑
materials such as glass, rubber or paper around a conductor that does not allow current to pass through is called an   insulator  
🗑
which of the following materials does not allow a current to pass though it   alcohol  
🗑
an ampere is a unit of electric   strength  
🗑
how many milliamperes equal one ampere   1,000  
🗑
a volt is a unit of electric   pressure  
🗑
a unit of electric resistance is called   ohm  
🗑
a measure of how much electric energy is being used is known as a   watt  
🗑
a constant electric current flowing in one direction is called an   direct current  
🗑
which of the following devices breaks the flow of current when an overload occurs   circuit breaker  
🗑
which of the following of the steps should NOT be followed to break the circuit when a person comes in contact with an electric current?   touch the person to ground the circuit  
🗑
the application of special currents (or modalities) that have a variety of effects on the skin is called   electrotherapy  
🗑
a current conductor used to direct the current appliance to the clients skin is called an   electrode  
🗑
the direct current used in electrotherapy treatment is   galvanic  
🗑
the electrode that is negatively charged during an electrotherapy treatment is known as an   cathode  
🗑
what temporary effect will a negative electrode pole produce when applying galvanic current during an electrotherapy treatment   increase in blood flow  
🗑
which of the following is not a temporary effect of the positive pole of galvanic current   softens tissues  
🗑
a treatment in which sebum is broken down or blackheads are liquefied, as in deep-pore cleansing is known as   desincrustation  
🗑
when using galvanic current on clients in a salon, what precaution must a salon professional take in order to prevent injury to the client   do not use over an area having broken capillaries  
🗑
faradic current is used chiefly to cause   muscle contractions  
🗑
tesla, a high frequency current is known as the   violet ray  
🗑
high frequency and alternating current are characteristics of which type of electrotherapy   telsa  
🗑
an alternating current that can be adjusted to different voltages to produce heat   high frequency  
🗑
if the client is holding the active electrode while the salon professional manually stimulates the area being treated , what method of telsa current is being used   indirect application  
🗑
which of the following will produce a mild, stimulating sensation while using high frequency current   slightly separating the electrode from the skin  
🗑
treatment with light rays is called   light therapy

which type of light can be broken into its individual wavelengths by a prism   combination  
🗑
which of the following has the longest wavelengths   infrared rays

a salon owner wants to mimic natural sunlight as closely as possibly in the salon reception area, which type of light would most likely be used to accomplish this requirement?   fluorescent light  
🗑
pure heat rays are produced by   infrared rays  
🗑
which of the following is a benefit of using infrared light during a facial   increases circulation  
🗑
the average distance an infrared lamp should be places during a facial is about   30"  
🗑
which of the following are known as actinic rays   ultraviolet  
🗑
which of the following is a benefit derived from the UV light   small doses tan the skin  
🗑
small doses of ultraviolet light may help the body produce   vitamin d  
🗑
bacteria that cause the skin infections can be killed by   ultraviolet light  
🗑
before using ultraviolet light on a client, the skin or scalp should be   cleansed  
🗑
materials that do not allow a current to pass is called an   insulator  
🗑
