The severity of an electrical shock depends on all of the following except: O The duration of the contact with the source of the shock. O Whether the shock is AC (alternating current) or DC (direct current). Whether the source of the electricity is a battery or a DC power supply. O The path the current takes through the body.

Figure P18.37 shows a simplified model of a cardiac defibrillator, a device used to patients in ventricular fibrillation. When the switch S is toggled to the left, the capacitor C charges through the resistor R .When the switch is toggled to the right, the capacitor discharges current through the patients torso, modeled as the resistor Rtorso, allowing the hearts normal rhythm to be reestablished. (a) If the capacitor is initially uncharged with C = 8.00 F and = 1250 V, find the value of R required to charge the capacitor to a voltage of 775 V in 1.50 s. (b) If the capacitor is then discharged across the patients torso with, Rtorso = 1250 , calculate the voltage across the capacitor after 5.00 ms. Figure P18.37
