Heart’s dipole charge. This question refers to the heart and ECG. There is a PDF from textbook on this situation.

A) For dipole described in the problem below, draw the Electric field lines of the dipole. Don’t worry about the dielectric.

B) What’s the ECG measure?

C) Why is it important for the ECG pads to have good electrical conduction. That is, why do they put that ointment on your skin when they place the pads? I solved this problem in class.

D) The heart has a dipole charge distribution with a charge of +1.0 * 10-7 C that is 6.0 cm above a charge of -1.0 * 10-7 C. Determine the E field (magnitude and direction) caused by the heart’s dipole at a distance of 8.0 cm directly above the heart’s positive charge. All charges are located in body tissue of dielectric constant 7.0. What is the force exerted on a sodium ion (charge = +e = +1.6 * 10-19 C) at that point?

An electron is released from rest on the axis of an electric dipole that has charge e and charge separation d = 33 pm and that is fixed in place. The release point is on the positive side of the dipole, at distance 9.4d from the dipole center. What is the electron's speed when it reaches a point 3.2d from the dipole center?

Question 3 In order for blood to flow from the veins back into the heart, the pressure in the right atrium must be lower than the pressure in the veins. Two physiological pumps help increase pressure in the venous system. How do pressure differentials that allows for inflation and deflation of the lungs also assist in venous return? Explain why individuals experience edema in their lower extremities during the course of a long distance flight.
