if an AC current goes through a human, the human transmit electromagnatic waves (my previous question).

so does that mean if electromagnatic field applied to a human, the human will generate electrical current?

i'm talking about the brain. and please have a look at my previous question here http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AjJZ.Q_vZlzVL4D809FCm6Tsy6IX?qid=20070531210334AA1DYwL


thanks!

AC current large enough to produce any sizeable electromagnetic transmission from a human would almost certainly kill the human. Likewise, humans are such poor conductors of electricity (resistance of several megaohms across a small patch of skin), that it would take an ABSURDLY strong EM signal to generate any significant electrical current in a human body. I don't think this is a situation that would ever arise.

It is not necessary to apply electromagnatic field. We generate our own electricity, as a matter of fact, the nervous impulse is partially conducted electrically. And the body also transmits static-electricity. In my own case, I cannot wear watches. About an hour after I put one on, it will stop--even quartz watch.
