terminology Flashcards
____: NRG exchange when 2 materials are touching each other
conduction
low freq
___: heat transfer by circulating medium
Convection
used by ultra high freq x10^10
___: conversion of a nonthermal form of NRG into heat
conversion
used by: high freq
____: transfer of NRG from one material to antoerh without the need for direct contact or an intervening medium
radiation
measure of resistance
ohm
measurement of power
watt
unit of current strength
ampere
equation for Ohm’s law
volt/ Ohm = ampere
Unit of speed
volt
What measurement should be increased when there is a lot of scar tissue to go through
amp
___: first thing that NRG goes through before it goes into the machine - protects from surge of NRG
fuse
___: is the intensity control
rheostat
____: fixes the problem in the machine and changes alternating current to direct current
rectifier
___: step up and step down
- takes the voltage and lowers it – then takes it back up
transformer
name the 3 portions of Joules Law
- head is directly proportiona to intensity squared
- different types of heat to different resistances
- heat is directly proportional to time
