The effect of one thing on another is the change that the first thing causes in the second thing.

If something has ill effects , it causes problems or damage .

harmful consequences , effects

the illumination of a play, film, etc

any sounds artificially produced, reproduced from a recording , etc, to create a theatrical effect, such as the bringing together of two halves of a hollow coconut shell to simulate a horse's gallop ; used in plays, films, etc

techniques used in the production of scenes that cannot be achieved by normal techniques

The effect of one thing on another is the change that the first thing causes in the second thing.

The after-effects of an event, experience, or substance are the conditions which result from it.

the spontaneous emission of an electron instead of a photon by an excited ion as a result of a vacancy being filled in an inner electron shell

the damage caused by the force of an explosive blast

the production of double refraction in certain transparent substances by the application of a strong electric field

a phenomenon observed in some semiconductors in which a steady electric field of magnitude greater than a threshold value generates electrical oscillations with microwave frequencies

the production of a potential difference across a conductor carrying an electric current when a magnetic field is applied in a direction perpendicular to that of the current flow

the beneficial effect on sales of a company's range of products produced by the popularity or high profile of one particular product

the production of heat as the result of a current flowing through a conductor

the production of heat as the result of a current flowing through a conductor

the production of double refraction in certain transparent substances by the application of a strong electric field

the production of double refraction in certain transparent substances by the application of a strong electric field

the increase in stress in an area of a component near a crack , depression , etc, or a change in section, such as a sharp angle: can be enough to cause failure of the component although the calculated average stress may be quite safe

the constriction of a beam of charged particles , caused by a force on each particle due to its motion in the magnetic field generated by the movement of the other particles

a change in wavelength of light that is scattered by electrons within a material. The effect is used in Raman spectroscopy for studying molecules

the inherent electronic noise arising in an electric current because of the discontinuous nature of conduction by electrons

the inherent electronic noise arising in an electric current because of the discontinuous nature of conduction by electrons

The side-effects of a drug are the effects, usually bad ones, that the drug has on you in addition to its function of curing illness or pain .

the tendency of alternating current to concentrate in the surface layer of a conductor , esp at high frequencies , thus increasing its effective resistance

Sound effects are the sounds that are created artificially to make a play more realistic , especially a radio play.

a special effect created on the stage by lighting, sound, etc

the splitting of the lines of a spectrum when the source of light is subjected to a strong electrostatic field, discovered by Johannes Stark (1874–1957) in 1913

an adverse effect of a drug produced by an exaggeration of the effect that produces the therapeutic response

the reflex curling upwards of the toes ( instead of inwards ) when the sole of the foot is stroked, normal in infants below the age of two but a pathological condition in adults

the distortion of opinion polls caused by the reluctance of respondents to admit to a preference that is regarded as socially unacceptable

a discouraging or deterring effect, esp. one resulting from a restrictive law or regulation

a phenomenon in which a collision between a photon and a particle results in an increase in the kinetic energy of the particle and a corresponding increase in the wavelength of the photon

a deflection in the path of a body moving in latitude relative to the Earth when observed from the Earth. The deflection is due to the Earth's rotation and is to the east when the motion is towards a pole

If one event causes another similar event, which in turn causes another event, and so on, you can refer to this as a domino effect .

a phenomenon , observed for sound waves and electromagnetic radiation , characterized by a change in the apparent frequency of a wave as a result of relative motion between the observer and the source

the improvement to the aerodynamic qualities of a low-slung motor vehicle resulting from a cushion of air beneath it

the phenomenon in which magnetic flux is excluded from a substance when it is in a superconducting state, except for a thin layer at the surface

the theoretical process by which an object approaching a black hole is progressively broken down into a long thin string of particles by increasing gravitational forces, esp the vast difference in gravitational strength at either end of the object

the increased sensitivity to radiation of living organisms, tissues, etc, when they are exposed in the presence of oxygen

the production of heat at one junction and the absorption of heat at the other junction of a thermocouple when a current is passed around the thermocouple circuit . The heat produced is additional to the heat arising from the resistance of the wires

The placebo effect is the fact that some patients' health improves after taking what they believe is an effective drug but which is in fact only a placebo.

the effect on the phenotype of interacting genes when their relative positions on the chromosome are altered , as by inversion

the process whereby the first few items on a list are learnt more rapidly than the middle items

an effect that occurs when a price or wage increases as a result of temporary pressure but fails to fall back when the pressure is removed
