An implanted pacemaker supplies the heart with 72 pulses per minute, each pulse providing 6.0 V for 0.65 ms. The resistance of the heart muscle between the pacemaker's electrodes is 550Ω. Find (a) the current that flows during a pulse, (b) the energy delivered in one pulse, and (c) the average power supplied by the pacemaker.

    Answer: a) 0.11 Amp b) 0.000429 Joules c) 0.000514 watt

    Explanation:

    a) current

    I=V/r I=6.0/550 = 1.1*10^-2 A

    b) energy

    E = 1.1*10^-2 x (6.0) x 0.00065s (<- - remember to convert ms to seconds) = 0.000429J

    C) Average power

    P = (0.000429 x 72) / 60

    P = 0.000514 W
