Hey everybody.....our teacher asked us to find the amount of currents that passes through
1. Human body ( in normal situation
2. Computer
3. TV
4. Radio
hey there, i have only 8 hours for turning in the assignment. i read books to find the answers but ended up with no answer. so please, either give me the answers(if u really know it), or give me site that can help me find the answers. thanks for giving me yr time.
bye

The amount of current passing through any particular object depends on the voltage potential applied to that object. You can use Ohm's law to find one unknown [Voltage=I(current in Amps) X Resistance (In Ohms)] or V=IR If you know the Voltage and the resistance you can find the current. Likewise if you know the current and the resistance you can find the voltage. On its face your question makes no sense.

The key to your answer is to find the wattage each device consumes.
Wattage = Power = Current * Voltage.
Since the computer, TV and Radio all work on 120V, it's easy to figure out the current, except that appliances have many different manufacturers and models. Remember to compute the INPUT power, not the wattage output.

The human heart uses a current of electricity. (that might be what she's asking about the human body)

Google it. If it's from a book see if there is a web site on it if not google that too.
Best of luck.
