A Van de Graff generator can kill a person.(a) True(b) FalseThis question was addressed to me in an interview for internship.Question is from Van de Graff Generator in section Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance of Physics – Class 12

Answer»

Correct choice is (b) False

For explanation: Van de Graff generators typically produce a very small amount of current, i.e. the current produced is in microamperes. THEREFORE, an accidental shock from a Van de Graff generator may be startling and it may be painful, but it will not cause SERIOUS HARM to most individuals, let alone KILL, even at a high voltages.
