Wall outlet (It was a M-M instead of M-F extension cord. I wonder who the forget came up with this stupid idea), 20A. Now, for the DC, it was 1A (Generator).
I know that. But you usually don't come across higher amp DC than AC in everyday life (like household stuff). My point was that it was likely that the AC current she came in contact with was of a higher amperage.
Right, a Physics lesson for you two it is then.
voltage is equal to current multiplied by resistance.
V = IR
On a good day, the bodies resistance is around 100,000 Ohms
Lets plug this in:
220 = 100,000I
I = 0.0022 Amps
This will be the same for both supplies.
What you're confusing is the supply's
rating. This is the amount of current that can be drawn without damaging said supply.
If you plug a hairdryer into the 20A outlet, the hairdryer is not going to use 20amps, it would melt!
im pretty sure AC is the one where if you grab something electrified by the palm of your hand, you can't let go.
Both are difficult to let go, however DC is by far the most difficult.
also the fact that AC will cause your heart to beat at the same bpm as the loving current
That depends on where the current is passing through you. If you grab a live wire with your right hand it's very unlikely to have an effect on you heart, as electric currents take the path of least resistance which will be down the side of you body, down your leg to ground.
