It's the current that kills you and that depends on your resistance Less than 1/2 milliamp no sensation
1/2 to 2 milliamperes Threshold of perception
2 to 10 milliamperes muscular contraction
5 to 25 milliamperes painful shock (may not be able to let go)
Over 25 milliamperes Could be violent muscular contraction
50 to 100 milliamperes Ventricular fibrillation
over 100 paralysis of breathing.
It is inappropriate and unethical to discuss the amount of force needed to harm or kill a human being. If you or someone you know is in danger, please seek help immediately by contacting emergency services or a mental health professional.
It takes around 100 mA of current at 50-100 volts to be lethal to an average person. Voltage alone is not a good indicator of lethality; it is the combination of voltage and current that determines the danger.
=It lasts until the person is dead, which is very sad. The amount that can kill a human varies so they switch it off when they are certain. I've never heard of anyone who's ever survived, so don't worry they never misjudge nor does the person feel the pain. Does that answer your question=
It only takes about 50-100 milliamps of current to disrupt the heart's rhythm and potentially cause death, regardless of the voltage. The voltage needed to produce this current varies depending on individual factors like skin resistance and contact points. However, in general, a voltage above 50 volts is considered potentially lethal.
Yes, if a person is struck by lightning, it can potentially kill them due to the high voltage and current. Lightning can cause cardiac arrest, neurological damage, and other severe injuries. It is important to take precautions during thunderstorms to stay safe.
It takes about 200 nots to kill you
The amount of Roundup needed to effectively kill a plant depends on the size and type of plant. Follow the instructions on the product label for the correct dosage.
It takes six to kill a person
yes right amount of 25mg of Donormyl will kill a person
Yes it is true that volts jolt but current kills. Current can kill you if it is high enough, and if it goes through your heart then it will most definitely kill you. Only a small amount of current is capable of killing some one. If the voltage is high enough it can send the current through your body and to your heart.
It is a combination of amperage, voltage, and the path the current takes through the body. Under some circumstances, a current as low as 10 milliamps can cause the heart to stop beating. That's ten thousandths of one amp.
Unlike many common beliefs, voltage is not the main cause of death. Rather, current is. A person would be alright using a current of 0.001A but will die if current strength is more than 0.07A. However, the high voltage myth is used so commonly because the voltage itself is more well known than the current(as used in the "electric power"). And as high voltage also implies high current, this leads to the confusion. I.e. 0.07A can kill a person
It is the path of the electric current through the body that will kill, not exactly the voltage. If the electricity go through the heart, it will have a higher chance of killing that person. Generally 100-300 voltage can shock the heart to defrillation. Higher voltage will probably stop the heart, and the heart could be burnt from the high voltage too. If the body is NOT earthed, the body could probably survive.

Current is what is can hurt or kill you.
It depends how much venom is injected. For example - It can take as little as two micro-grams to kill a mouse - HOWEVER - the average amount injected in a single bite is around is 44 milligrams - 20,000 times the dose needed !
