Is tens AC or DC? A standard TENS unit typically delivers a low-frequency (<50 Hz) alternating current to a focused treatment area. Due to the nature of low-frequency, however, these signals have a low capacity to overcome skin resistance – resulting in these units only providing pain relief via the Gate Control Theory while being […]

What is the relationship between air pressure and weather?
What is the relationship between air pressure and weather? Atmospheric pressure is an indicator of weather. When a low-pressure system moves into an area, it usually leads to cloudiness, wind, and precipitation. High-pressure systems usually lead to fair, calm weather. How pressure affects the wind flow? Air Pressure and Winds Air that moves horizontally between […]
When light interacts with matter 3 things can happen?
When light interacts with matter 3 things can happen? Light can interact with matter in three ways: absorption, transmission, and reflection. 1. ABSORPTION – When a light wave with a identical frequency to an electron’s natural frequency “impinges” upon an atom, the electrons will begin to vibrate as a result (almost like they are “set […]
What is relative term in physics?
What is relative term in physics? A relative term is a term that makes two or more distinct references to objects (which may be the same object, for example in “The Morning Star is the Evening Star”). Is there anything called absolute motion? A body cannot exist at a state of absolute rest or absolute […]
Why do planes fly over water instead of land?
Why do planes fly over water instead of land? At lower levels, being over sea would typically offer less turbulence, in part because as the ground warms you can encounter rising air thermals. Generally, airliners fly whatever route provides the shortest time, which is not always the shortest distance, often called the Great Circle route. […]
Can you get cancer from sitting in front of a heater?
Can you get cancer from sitting in front of a heater? We know what it is, but there have been very few direct sources of interference to the natural body functions, that result in the mutations of the cell divisions, that is commonly called ‘cancer’. Sitting in front of an “infra Red” heater, is not […]
How do muscles get oxygen?
How do muscles get oxygen? Oxygen is supplied to the muscles via red blood cells. Red blood cells carry hemoglobin which oxygen bonds with as the hemoglobin rich blood cells pass through the blood vessels of the lungs. The now oxygen rich blood cells carry that oxygen to the cells that are demanding it, in […]
How do you Operationalise variables examples?
How do you Operationalise variables examples? Operationalizing Variables For example, if we are concerned with the effect of media violence on aggression, then we need to be very clear what we mean by the different terms. In this case, we must state what we mean by the terms “media violence” and “aggression” as we will […]
Do elements in Group 1 gain or lose electrons?
Do elements in Group 1 gain or lose electrons? All Group 1 atoms can lose one electron to form positively charged ions. For example, potassium atoms do this to form ions with the same electron configuration as the noble gas argon. Group 2 atoms lose two electrons to form positively charged ions. Most elements in […]
