Piezoelectricity is the ability of some materials (notably crystals and certain ceramics , pincluding bone to generate an electric field or electric potential in response to applied mechanical stress. The effect is closely related to a change of polarization density within the material's volume. If the material is not short-circuited , the applied stress induces a voltage across the material. The word is derived from the Greek piezo or piezein, which means to squeeze or ress.

What is the answer to piezoelectricity is caused by pressing or squeezing?
CRYSTALS
Who discovered piezoelectricity?
Pierre Curie discovered piezoelectricty.
What is the quality of bones that allows them to deform slightly and vibrate when electrical currents pass through?
piezoelectricity
What is piezoelectric crystal?
Piezoelectricity is the property of a material to generate movement from an electric current, and vice versa. A common piezoelectric material is quartz.
Creating electricity by exerting force on a crystal is called?
piezoelectricity - the principle by which certain crystals become electrically charged when pressure is applied.
Piezoelectricity is caused by pressing or sqeezing?
Crystals.

Piezoelectricity is caused by pressing or squeezing?
Crystals
Piezein' the root word in piezoelectricity means 'to squeeze' in which language?
Greek
How much do quartz crystals used for piezoelectricity cost?
4-10 dollars
What type of crystal exhibit piezoelectricity?
Examples: tourmaline, quartz, Rochelle salt, topaz etc.
What is the quality of bones that allows them to deform slightly and vibrate when electrical currents pass through?
piezoelectricity
What is the difference between piezoelectricity and pyroelectricity?
consider a triangle where each corner represents kinetic, electrical n thermal. the side bw thermal and electrical rep the pyroelectricity and it produces no kinetic The side bw thermal and kinetic rep the piezoelectricity and it produces no heat
What is piezoeletricity?
when crystals such as quartz and Rochelle salts are squeezed or pressed ,they release electrons.This effect is known as piezoelectricity.
The production of electric currents by certain crystals when they are squeezed or stretched?
You are talking about piezoelectricity. See related linksbelow.
How does electric current produced?
When piezoelectricity material is squeezed, it produces electricity. This is the esseantial idea about piezo materials.
