  2. Whole-body vibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whole-body_vibration

    Vibrating platforms fall into different, distinct categories. The type of platform used is a moderator of the effect and result of the training or therapy performed. [30] Main categories of machine types are: High energy linear, found mostly in commercial vibration training studios and gyms. The vibration direction is lineal/upward

    10 −15: 1 femtohertz (fHz) ~3 fHz: Sound waves created by a supermassive black hole in the Perseus cluster [1] 10 −14: 10 fHz ~31.71 fHz: Once every one million years 10 −12: 1 picohertz (pHz) 1.23 pHz Precession of the Earth's axis (about every 25,700 years) 10 −11: 10 pHz ~31.71 pHz: Once per millennium 1010: 100 pHz ~317.1 pHz ...

  4. Hearing range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hearing_range

    The human auditory system is most sensitive to frequencies between 2,000 and 5,000 Hz. [10] Individual hearing range varies according to the general condition of a human's ears and nervous system. The range shrinks during life, [ 11 ] usually beginning at around the age of eight with the upper frequency limit being reduced.

  5. Theta wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theta_wave

    Hippocampal theta waves, with a frequency range of 6–10 Hz, appear when a rat is engaged in active motor behavior such as walking or exploratory sniffing, and also during REM sleep. [3] Theta waves with a lower frequency range, usually around 6–7 Hz, are sometimes observed when a rat is motionless but alert.

  6. Electromagnetic spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum

    In frequency (and thus energy), UV rays sit between the violet end of the visible spectrum and the X-ray range. The UV wavelength spectrum ranges from 399 nm to 10 nm and is divided into 3 sections: UVA, UVB, and UVC. UV is the lowest energy range energetic enough to ionize atoms, separating electrons from them, and thus causing chemical reactions.

  7. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcutaneous_electrical...

    A transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS or TNS) is a device that produces mild electric current to stimulate the nerves for therapeutic purposes.TENS, by definition, covers the complete range of transcutaneously applied currents used for nerve excitation, but the term is often used with a more restrictive intent, namely, to describe the kind of pulses produced by portable ...

  8. Audio frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_frequency

    An audio frequency or audible frequency (AF) is a periodic vibration whose frequency is audible to the average human. The SI unit of frequency is the hertz (Hz). It is the property of sound that most determines pitch. [1] The generally accepted standard hearing range for humans is 20 to 20,000 Hz.

  9. Pulsed radiofrequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsed_radiofrequency

    Pulsed radiofrequency is the technique whereby radio frequency (RF) oscillations are gated at a rate of pulses (cycles) per second (one cycle per second is known as a hertz (Hz)). Radio frequency energies occupy 1.0 × 10 4 Hz to 3.0 × 10 11 Hz of the electromagnetic spectrum .
