It really depends on how much voltage is present in relation to the current; your physiogamy (heart condition, pacemakers, etc,) and how/where it is applied, age and your individual body resistance. Is it across the arms from voltage source to ground (one hand to the other) crossing through the chest? Is it a lightning strike?

A typical television's high voltage section runs at 15,734 hz. per second and generally ranges from an average of 19,500 to 23,000 volts. The average current available is seven milliamps, or .007 amps. Most people can handle a discharge from a TV, but it most likely will cause an adrenaline release in your body. Then, for about 45 minutes or so, you'll feel great. Then after that, you can expect a feeling of heavy fatigue as the adrenaline dissipates. I've been personally zapped several times over the years and that's about the only ill effects I've ever encountered.

ON the other hand, an electronic ignition coil can put out anywhere from approximately 35,000 to 100,000 volts at a much higher current. It too produces the same effect as a TV high voltage discharge, plus a numbing of the extremity inviolved.

Yet, we know too, that people have survived lightning strikes, and we're talking roughly a million volts at thousands of amps, and they too have survived the incident with little or no apparent damage (but not in all cases).

Having been burned by radio frequency from a ham transmitter running at 75 watts output, I encountered a very nasty little burn as I brushed up against the antenna with my thumb, which bore a perfectly round, 1/8" hole into my skin, cauterized the wound and left it complete with a scab to cover the hole. That was an especially nasty wound and it hurt for several days afterward, but I suffered no other ill effects.

It's possible place your hands on both terminals of a car battery at 12 volts, yet it has the storage capacity of a few hundred "cold cranking amps" and not feel a thing. Stick a 9 volt transistor radio battery to your tongue and you'll definitely feel a tingle, but on a "dead short" that same battery can deliver up to a whopping 80 amps for a fraction of a second.

How many milliamps? At what frequency? AC, pulsed DC or RF? At what voltage? For how long?

The whole point is that it varies from individual to individual and on many other conditions. Simple rule of thumb: Keep one hand in your pocket when working on anything where the potential to shock you is present, and don't believe "trueisms" concerning electricity.

Corrosion can cause the main hardware parts to malfunction or simply stop operating. Corrosion on the power supply unit can cause short circuits and fires.

If DC voltage is applied to the primary of a transformer the flux produced in the transformer core will not vary but remain constant in magnitude therefore no emf will be induced in the secondary winding except at the time of switching on.Also there will be no self induced emf in the primary winding to oppose the applied voltage and since the resistance of the primary winding is quite low heavy current will flow through it which may result in burning out of primary winding.

10 volts.

The formula to work that out is:

quantity of cells*voltage of cells

Yes. Any type can be charged on any Charger. Even San Diego Chargers.

OLED stand for organic light emitting diode. Like conventional LEDs, each diode emits light. Put a red, green and blue LED together and they are able to create any color. Because the LEDs emit light, they do not require a separate back light component so the screen depth can be reduced significantly.

LED screens have been used for many years in open air and arenas. The very compact form of organic LEDs offers opportunities to use LEDs in compact, domestic sized televisions. Because of the simpler construction, it is likely that LED television will become norm in just a few years from now.

It depends on what you want to do by using them togheter...there is a software called "Virtual audio cable" (not freeware) that allows you to connect "virtually" the output of virtualdj into a input in Ableton live, so that you can use virtualdj as an audio source for further equalizations or for automations. You can also invert the path from Live to virtualdj. I don't know anything like virtual audio cable for free, but it costs 22 $ and you can download a working demo.

Electric Source

You hook both to an electric Load.

0800 numbers are freephone numbers which are widely utilised by businesses large & small.

You don't.

Yes, you can. You need to make an FM receiver and attach it to the receiver coil. You'll need to install a switch so you can switch between them, as well.

Your Canon Multipass F50 might not print in color because you have changed the settings and requested "black ink only" or the "grey scale" coloring. It might also be out of colored ink.

The misuses of statistics are too numerous to list. One of best books published on this subject, "How to Lie with Statistics", by Darrell Huff, published in 1954 is still in print, much longer than any textbook on the subject of statistics. An excellent starting point, but certainly not the only source on the subject, is wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misuse_of_statistics Statistics, if I narrowly define it, as values resulting from numerical calculations made from a set of data, are not the problem. Any set of collected data will have just one mean value, one standard deviation, and other measures. The measures can be easily checked and verified. But in a broader context, the discipline of statistical analyses, includes the planning of data collection, the verification of collected data, the assessment or evaluation of potential errors in collection and results, and misinterpretation, either intentionally or unintentionally. The discipline of statistics when correctly applied is an unbiased interpretation of data in a critical manner. But, if the interpretation fits pre-conceived ideas, then frequently the critical examination is neglected. Some statistical analyses fit the category as simply speculative or controversial conclusions. Our first look at data, is with graphs, and the art of biasing graphs for the sake of making them more supportive our conclusions - is part of the misuse of statistics. See: http://www.roofable.com/2007/10/03/how-to-lie-with-graphs-the-ny-times-as-real-estate-case-study/ You will find many other examples by doing google searches in the internet.

NBOX is a standard definition digital media player that supports playback of a wide variety of video files up to 720x576 in resolution. It does have a 720p component video output, so it is capable of performing the necessary up-scaling. The results are about what you can expect from a very good DVD player.

The NBOX is what's known in the industry as a "reference design" product in that it uses the basic hardware and firmware design produced by the chip set manufacturer. It is based on the popular Amlogic AML8613 chip set, and uses the standard firmware (except for the additional NBOX logo). Being a reference design product, it works well and offers the basic features, but it lacks some of the more advanced features such as HDMI output or internal HDD drive bay that can be found on other players.

The NBOX is suitable as an inexpensive general purpose media player that can replace low end DVD players, provide a similar level of visual quality, while taking up much less space. It's cheap enough that you can have multiple units throughout the house.

Net is short for network. It is a group of organized radio stations meeting on a set time/frequency to exchange information etc. For example, every night a 8:00 p.m. our club runs a net where individuals tune into a set radio frequency to allow for announcements, messages or emergency information to be exchanged. By meeting each night on a schedule, if there was a disaster or failure of communications, each member would know that at least once per day there would be an set time/place to meet to get or send information to each other.

You can put pictures but not movies so far as I know.

The orignal price was $269.99. I had bought mine at target in 1999 and it works just as fine now in 2012.

My best guess is that it was probably a piece of 1"X6" board, attached to a couple of roller skate wheels that some kid put together with nails and a hammer in the garage.

In the old days, roller skates were a clamp on type that had a metal frame which you could attach to your shoes. The front wheels and the rear wheels were uwsually made of steel for sidewalk use and could be separated, leaving a bit of metal framework for each set of wheels. If one of the pair of skates broke, there wasn't a lot you could do with a single skate.

Kids are inventive. Need I say more?

actually it wasnt a kid that invented it it was a guy named bill Richard. him and some roller blade company did that. then a women tha owned a surfing company decided to start making them her name was Makaha she was one of the manufacters. and it wasn't intill the 1950's that they where frist invented and then just went from there. Google that it up it exists. anyway it wasn't with hammer and nails either otherwise the wheels wouldn't turn or even move. plus it wasnt that old as u can see from what i put up earlyer, and yes i agree with that kids are inventive but i don't think they would have the brain power at that time to invent somthing like that, that actually worked. so for all u skateboarders who love to skateboard say thanks to bill Richard. he's the one that made it all possible. Also in the 1950's back then it was called "sidewalk surfing".. just somthing i thought u all should know.

Having made skateboards from skates in the 1950's I can tell you exactly how it was done. Many of us had Roller Derby-type skates in those days - the kind that clamped onto your shoes. We'd first removed the clamps on the front of the skates. Using a hacksaw, we cut off the heel of the skates. Now we have a flat surface to work with. Yes, we used nails and just bent them over the skates attaching them to a 1x6 board. We'd use a wood saw to round the front and back of the board. If you were lucky, somebody's Dad in the neighborhood had a drill with metal bits. If you had that, then you could drill holes in the skates and mount the skates to the board with screws rather than nails. This was a much more sturdy design. The rear of the skate was attached to the rear of the skateboard and the front of the skate was attached to the front of the skateboard. Finally, leaning to one side or the other did not result in a sharp turn, at least not that you could make a corner on a sidewalk at the end of the street. We removed or cut-down in size the rubber piece on each skate truck. That did the trick but it also made the skateboard much more unstable. You could fall much more easily but you sure could make a turn well. We'd decorate them with paint. We did this about 1957 in Hermosa Beach, California. We had some hairy rides down 8th Place toward Pacific Coast highway. Those were the days.
