A defibrillator is used during a heart attack to restore the heart to its normal beating pattern. A defibrillator passes 16 A of current through the torso of a person in 2.5 ms. (a) How much charge moves during this time? (b) How many electrons pass through the wires connected to the patient?
Here,
a) for the total charge
total charge = current * time
total charge = 16 * 0.0025
total charge = 0.04 C
total charge moved is 0.04 C
part b)
number of electrons pass = charge/e
number of electrons pass = 0.04/(1.602 *10^-19)
number of electrons pass = 2.5 *10^17
the number of electrons passing is 2.5 *1017

A defibrillator is used during a heart attack to restore the heart to its normal beating pattern. A defibrillator passes 19 A of current through the torso of a person in 2.3 ms. (a) How much charge moves during this time? (b) How many electrons pass through the wires connected to the patient?
A defibrillator is used during a heart attack to restore the heart to its normal beating pattern. A defibrillator passes 18 A of current through the torso of a person in 1.7 ms. (a) How much charge moves during this time? (b) How many electrons pass through the wires connected to the patient? Need the full answer for b. Not expessed as x10^
A defibrillator passes a brief burst of current through the heart to restore normal beating. In one such defibrillator, a 59.5 µF capacitor is charged to 5.6 kV. Paddles are used to make an electrical connection to the patient's chest. A pulse of current lasting 1.0 ms partially discharges the capacitor through the patient. The electrical resistance of the patient (from paddle to paddle) is 226 Ω. (a) What is the initial energy stored in the capacitor? J (b) What...
A defibrillator passes a brief burst of current through the heart to restore normal beating. In one such defibrillator, a 40.6-μF capacitor is charged to 5.90 kV. Paddles are used to make an electric connection to the patient’s chest. A pulse of current lasting 1.00 ms partially discharges the capacitor through the patient. The electrical resistance of the patient (from paddle to paddle) is 240 Ω. What is the initial energy stored in the capacitor?
That needs a defibrillator passes 12A current through the torso person for point 04 seconds how much charge moves
A 11.6 μF capacitor in a heart defibrillator unit is charged fully by a 12000 V power supply. Each capacitor plate is connected to the chest of a patient by wires and flat "paddles," one on either side of the heart. The energy stored in the capacitor is delivered through an RC circuit, where R is the resistance of the body between the two paddles. Data indicate that it takes 76.3 ms for the voltage to drop to 20.5 V...
During ventricular fibrillation the heart muscles contract randomly, preventing the coordinated pumping of blood. A defibrillator can often restore normal blood pumping by discharging the charge on a capacitor through the heart. Paddles are held against the patient's chest, and a 6.3 ×10−6 F charged capacitor is discharged in several milliseconds. If the capacitor energy is 270 J, what potential difference was used to charge the capacitor?
A heart dysfunction that can cause death is ventricular fibrillation. This is an uncoordinated quivering of the heart as opposed to regular beating. An electric shock to the chest can cause momentary paralysis of the heart muscle, after which the heart will sometimes start organized beating again. A defibrillator is a device that applies a strong electric shock to the chest over a time of a few milliseconds. The device contains a capacitor of several microfarads, charged to several thousand...
In comparing wires of identical shape and carrying the same current but made of different metals, is the drift velocity in each wire inversely proportional to the number density of charge carriers? No. The drift velocity is the same for all conductors. Yes. To have the same current from k times as many carriers, it takes k times the drift speed. No. The drift velocity is directly proportional to the number density of carriers. Yes. To have the same current...
1. What is the emf of a battery that increases the electric potential energy of 0.050 C of charge by 0.60 J as it moves from the negative to the positive terminal? 2 .A thermistor is a device whose resistance varies with temperature. At 20∘C a thermistor's resistance is 10.0 kΩ. When connected to a 1.2 V battery, the current through the thermistor increases by 20 μA as the temperature increases to 30∘C. What is the thermistor's resistance at this...
