Piezoelectric effect

was changed:
Piezoelectric effect refers to applyingthe application of an electric field to a crystal, which causes realignment of the internal dipole structure resulting. This realignment results in the crystal to lengthen lengthening or contract. The process convertscontraction, converting electrical energy into kinetic or mechanical energy. This is how ultrasound transducers produce the sound waves.
The reverse of the piezoelectric effect converts kinetic or mechanical energy, due to crystal deformation, into electrical energy. This is how ultrasound transducers receive the sound waves.
