Compute the capacitance of the capacitor in the defibrillator and calculate the magnitude of the averagecurrent flowing during the pulse.Hint: The relation between the stored charge (Q), and the voltage across the capacitor is given byIn a charged capacitor, positive charges are on one side of the plate, and negative charges are on the other.The amount of energy (E) stored in such a configuration is given byCurrents in the range of a few amperes flowing in the region of the heart can cause death within a few minutes. In thisconnection, a large current of about 10 A is often less dangerous than a 1-A current. When the smaller current passes through the heart,it may tetanize only part of the heart, thereby causing a desynchronization of the heart action; this condition is called fibrillation. Themovements of the heart become erratic and ineffective in pumping blood. Usually fibrillation does not stop when the current source isremoved. A large current tetanizes the whole heart, and when…
