I understand why you get harmed if you’re grounded, you’re becoming part of the wire and the electricity is going from you to the earth. what I dont understand is, why the electricity doesnt harm you when youre not touching the ground, isnt it going through you either way? how does it not affect your body?
In: Physics
Electricity is just the movement of electrons through a medium. It has to have somewhere to go or it can’t move. If it can’t move it can’t do any work, and it needs to do work to cause any damage.
