At 110v what body resistance would allow the lethal level of shock current to flow?
well, it depends on the individual. IIRC, 240volt Residual Current Device (AKA ELCB) designed to protect life operate at 60mA which requires a 'simple' body resistance of 4000 ohms. However, this doesn't take account of AC resistance (includes capacitive and reactive impedance) which is dependant on frequency! So, at 110v DC (you don't mention AC or DC voltage) a body resistance of below 2000 would result in a potentially lethal current ... I wouldn't want to test it however - I've had two 240v AC shocks and, to be honest, that's enough. I've 'felt' 110v AC 60Hz and also 110v AC 400Hz - the 400Hz definatly cought my attention .....

What is the meaning of Ohms?
Resistance is the measure of the degree to which an object will oppose an electric current. The SI unit for resistance is Ohm (Ω). Resistance can be found using the formula R=V/I where R=resistance (Ohms) V=the potential difference across the object (Volts) I=the current through the object (Amperes)
What factors contribute to the decay of current in an LR circuit?
In an LR circuit, the decay of current is influenced by factors such as the resistance in the circuit, the inductance of the coil, and the initial current flowing through the circuit. The resistance causes the current to decrease over time, while the inductance stores energy in the magnetic field, which can also affect the rate of decay. Additionally, the initial current level determines how quickly the current will decay in the circuit.
How does resistance affect the current in a circuit?
Resistors are used for many things in an electronic circuit, including creating a voltage drop at some point; attenuating noise on a signal before it reaches the output stage; in combination with transistor devices, split a signal into 2 opposite phases; present a minimum load to a device to keep it working at its optimum point; to create an appropriate bias level for transistor device inputs; to control a timing circuit in conjunction with a capacitor; to create a tuned circuit in conjunction with an inductor, and/or a capacitor . . . . and the list goes on . . .
How many volts of electricity can be fatal?
It is not just the voltage but the flow of current (amperes) that determines how much electricity (energy, joules) is passed through the body. A tiny current at very high voltages is harmless, although less so with a high amperage and tiny current. The resistance of the skin may allow high voltages to flow along the outside of the body rather than through it.
Is the resistamce of fuse wire high or low?
The resistance of fuse wire is low, typically in the range of 0.01 to 1 ohm. This low resistance allows the fuse wire to quickly heat up and melt when current exceeds a safe level, breaking the circuit and protecting the rest of the circuit from damage.
Can you measure resistance while checking for continuity?
A: Checking continuity is the same as checking resistance, therefore yes someone can determine the resistance at that particular current level
Examples of high resistance and low resistance objects?
High resistance objects include materials like rubber, glass, and dry wood, while low resistance objects include metals like copper, silver, and gold. High resistance objects impede the flow of electrical current, while low resistance objects allow current to flow more easily.
If voltage remains constant and resistance decreases current flow?
the current will increase because of a lower level of resistance , hence more current will flow- easily
What is the difference between high impedance and low impedance?
The difference between high impedance and low impedance is the amount of resistance in an electrical circuit. High impedance means there is a high level of resistance, which limits the flow of current. Low impedance means there is a low level of resistance, allowing for a greater flow of current.
What alcohol level is lethal?
2.8 blood alcohol level in a female
How can you block voltage until a certain level?
You can 'block' current ... like with a high series resistance ...but you can't 'block' voltage.
Is a blood alcohol level of 94 lethal?
yes

What is lethal blood alcohol level?
0.4% w/v in your blood is the lethal does of alcohol.A liter of hard liquor, such as spirits or vodka.
Can you put lethal in a sentence?
The lethal word can be put into sentence as such. The bite of a snake is lethal and fatal.
How does the design of large boats allow them to float?
no design matters. it is the force of water resistance and upthrust that are level that allows any boat to float
