Textbook Question
Chapter 17, Problem 22P
The human body can exhibit a wide range of resistances to current depending on the path of the current, contact area, and sweatiness of the skin. Suppose the resistance across the chest from the left hand to the right hand is 1.0 × 106 Ω. (a) How much voltage is required to cause possible heart fibrillation in a man, which corresponds to 500 mA of direct current? (b) Why should rubber-soled shoes and rubber gloves be worn when working around electricity?

A player kicks a football at the start of the game. After a 4 second flight, the ball touches the ground 50 m from the kicking tee. Assume air resistance is negligible and the take-off and landing height are the same (i.e., time to peak = time to fall = ½ total flight time). (Note: For each question draw a diagram to show the vector/s. Show all the step and provide units in the answers. Provide answer to 2 decimal places unless stated otherwise.) Calculate and answer all parts. Only use equations PROVIDED:

The battleship is a distance d1 = 2,150 m to the east of the peak of a mountain on an island, as shown in the figure below. The destroyer is attempting to evade cannon shells fired from the battleship by hiding on the west side of the island. The initial speed of the shells that the battleship fires is vi = 245 m/s. The peak of the mountain is h = 1,840 m above sea level, and the western shore of the island is a horizontal distance d2 = 250 m from the peak. What are the distances (in m), as measured from the western shore of the island, at which the destroyer will be safe from fire from the battleship? (Note the figure is not to scale. You may assume that the height and width of the destroyer are small compared to d1 and h.)arrow_forward
