- londons_explore 5y agoCycling on a gym bike for 1 second is also 300 Joules... It all depends how it's delivered!
- L_226 5y agoSo IEEE 1584 actually defines the boundary for second degree burns to unprotected skin at > 5.0 J/cm^2 [0]. Assuming the parent comment parameters of 0.0777 Wh discharging thermally over 10 seconds into ~1cm^2 of finger, that is ~27 joules per cm^2 per second for 10 seconds. I think you would probably lose the finger. Please correct me if I am wrong. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_flash#Distance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_flash#Distance
