The motor winding has gone to ground internally. The ability of the motor to shock you is caused by the ground wire missing or not connected. It is this ground wire that trips the breaker in short circuit conditions and disconnects the motor from the distribution system.

Because there is a potential difference between the live and neutral wires.
If you were to spend a lot of time studying nerve physiology in the lab what type of stimulus would you use and why?
Electric Shock. Nerves can be stimulated by chemicals, touch, or electric shock. Electronic shock allows for the duration, frequency, and voltage of the shock to be precisely controlled.
How does electricity apply to mankind?
it effects a person when the electric hits their nerves. sometimes, electric can cause shock in many cases. alot of people think that if you touch a Walt outlet, you will shake and do all the weirdest things like in the movies. that is really not true

Can a radio give you an electric shock?

How do you get electric shock?
Electricity tends to travel towards the ground. when we touch an electrical substance, our body acts as a conductor and the current passes through our body to the ground. this is how we get an electric shock.
What happens if your hands are wet when you touch a charged object?

Why doesn't the electric current in an electric cooktop burner cause a shock hazard?
The actual resistance heating element is inside the burner (which is actually a hollow tube), and is insulated from it. The part you can see and touch is not electrically connected and is not live.
What will happen if you touch a person while the AED is delivering a shock?

Why do you have to turn off the electricity before you touch the circuits?
Because if you didn't you would get an electric shock
How do you prevent getting an electric shock?
Turn the power off and check for voltage before you touch it
Why do you get an electric shock when you touch a car door handle?
From the accumulation of static electricity during dry weather.
What causes you to get an electric shock when you touch when you touch a metal door?
That would be a static discharge. Usually around 40000 to 80000 volts at pico amperes.
