a. What is the current (in A) when a typical static charge of 0.260 µC moves from your finger to a metal doorknob in 4.50 µs?
b.During open-heart surgery, a defibrillator can be used to bring a patient out of cardiac arrest. The resistance of the path is 540 Ω and an 11.6 mA current is needed. What voltage should be applied (in V)?
A conducting rod with a circular cross-section (this rod is a cylinder) has a radius of 1o
mm and is 2 metres long. The rod is made of aluminum, so its conductivity is 3.6 x 10' s/m. A
potential difference (voltage) is applied at both ends of this rod and the current is I= 90 A.
That's a lot of current!
a. What is the resistance of the rod, when measured from one end to the other?
b. Calculate the current density in the rod along its length.
. Determine the electric field amplitude at all locations within the rod.
d. What is the electric potential difference between the two ends of the rod.
In recent years, investigators have explored alterations in brain activity due to the passage of a small current through the brain via electrodes placed on the scalp, with intriguing results related to memory and cognition. In one study, electrodes on the scalp created a 1.0 V/mV/m electric field in the brain tissue and caused a 1.0 mAmA current to pass through a 2.5×10−3m22.5×10−3m2 cross-section area of the brain.
What resistivity does this imply for the brain tissue ?
i got the answer 2.5 ohms/m
but i wanna double check if it is correct
thank you in advanced
