Electricity can be a hazard in hospitals, particularly to patients who are connected to electrodes, such as an ECG. Suppose that the motor of a motorized bed shorts out to the bed frame, and the bed frame’s connection to a ground has broken (or was not there in the first place). If a nurse touches the bed and the patient at the same time, the nurse becomes a conductor and a complete circuit can be made through the patient to ground through the ECG apparatus. This is shown schematically in Fig. 19–75. Calculate the current through the patient. Equation Transcription: Text Transcription: 10^4 Omega 10^4 Omega 10^4 Omega

Problem 13MCQ Why is an appliance cord with a three-prong plug safer than one with two prongs? (a) The 120 V from the outlet is split among three wires, so it isn’t as high a voltage as when it is only split between two wires. (b) Three prongs fasten more securely to the wall outlet. (c) The third prong grounds the case, so the case cannot reach a high voltage. (d) The third prong acts as a ground wire, so the electrons have an easier time leaving the appliance. As a result, fewer electrons build up in the appliance. (e) The third prong controls the capacitance of the appliance, so it can’t build up a high voltage.

Electricity can be a hazard in hospitals, particularly to patients who are connected to electrodes, such as an ECG. Suppose that the motor of a motorized bed shorts out to the bed frame, and the bed frame’s connection to a ground has broken (or was not there in the first place).
