Most people think of electrocution from overhead wires or dangerous power lines. However, there are also small circuits, such as the ones you learn to design in this course, that are very dangerous. One such example is the electronic cigarette, or E-Cig for short (See Figure 1 below). This is actually a small systems engineering device designed to be carried on your person. It consists of a small dc circuit with voltage, current, and resistance (See Figure 2 below). We know that all current, large and small, can have a dangerous impact on the human body.
In your original post, answer the following:
In your responses to your classmates discuss how you would translate the safety rule your classmate chose to a larger system (e.g. car, home, power plant, robot on factory floor…).
