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.
What would a GFCI protect you from?
Death possibly. If your body completes the electrical circuit, the ground fault interrupter will switch the power off and save you from electrocution. Required where electricity is being used around sinks (kitchens, bathrooms) and outdoors.
Why can you use electrical devices without getting shocked?
To receive a shock from electrical devices you have to become part of the electrical circuit. Most electrical devices come in two categories. One, the device is grounded and the other is the device is double insulated.The grounded devices have their metallic frames grounded. On a short circuit fault this will trip the breaker and isolate the device's fault before you have a chance to ground out the device by touching it.The double insulated device has two covers that protect the user from shock. The double insulation type of protection is usually used on hand held power tools.
Can c4 explode with an electrical charge?
If the charge is delivered directly into the RDX inside the plastic coating, then yes. But usually, a blasting cap is used. The cap explodes and the shock wave it produces is enough to initiate C4. If an electrical system is used, wires are inserted into the plastic binder and to a detonating system. A remote control would send a jolt of electricity to the explosive, and it would explode.
Does sugar create electrical resistance?
Sugar is not used in electrical circuits.
What stimulus is used in labs to study nerve physiology?
For my class, We used to use electrical shock (Voltage) as a stimulus. However, there are some other types as well, such as mechanical (glass rod), or thermal stimulation (heat a glass bar).
What type of electrical shock is used when an R wave is present in the patient's rhythm?
Precordial shock from the AED
Why is water not used for extinguishing caused due to electrical faults?
because we will get shock
What is the fire extinguishers co 2 used for?
The carbon dioxide fire extinguisher can be used on electrical fires, where there is a danger of an electrical shock if a soda water extinguisher was used.
Why is water not used for extinguishing fires caused due to electrical faults?
because we will get shock
What is electrical shock sensation?
It is the hard way finding out that the electrical circuit is still energized. It is much easier on the body if a tester is used to check for voltage before any work is started on any electrical circuit.
What is the house earthing?
The term 'house earthing' is used in the electrical wiring of a structure in order to ground the house against electrical leakage which can cause increased power usage and the possibilty of safety concerns involving electrical shock.
If shock is sitting at the bottom of a pool how do you clean it?
Rephrase the question. What type of shock have you used? Is it a calcium based shock treatment? Supply more info.
What would happen if you are awake and paddles are used to shock the heart?
Paddles (on a defibrillator) will only shock you if the electrical current running through your heart is a VF or VT. If you are flat lined or have a normal rhythm, it will not work.
What is the medical term meaning An electrical shock delivered to the heart to correct certain abnormal heart rhythms?
A defibrillator is a device used to deliver a shock to the heart to restore its normal rhythm.
Hair dryers should not be used near water why?
Because it is dangerous. It might shock you because electricity isn't surpose to touch water hot or cold.
Are there any dangerous risks to installing an outdoor ceiling fan?
The biggest risk in installing outdoor ceiling fans is that of electrical shock, if it is not installed properly or is not for use in an outdoor area. Rain and snow could cause electrical shock and may even cause a fire if not properly installed or used correctly.
