Question

1. Defibrillator machines are used to deliver an electric shock to the human heart in order to resuscitate an otherwise non-
beating heart. It is estimated that a current as low as 18 mA through the heart is required to resuscitate. Using 200,000 £2
as the overall resistance, determine the output voltage required of a defibrillating device.

Answer 1

The output voltage required of a defibrillating device will be 1700 V.

What is ohm’s law?

Ohm's law claims that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.

Given data;

I = 17 mA=17×10⁻³ A

R = 1×10⁵ ohm

Ohm's law claims that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.

This current-voltage connection may be expressed mathematically as,

The Equation of Ohm's Law

V=IR

V =17×10⁻³ A×  1×10⁵ ohm

V = 17 × 10²

V = 1700 V

Hence,the output voltage required of a defibrillating device will be  1700 V
