Hii dear here is your answer



A.C. is More Dangerous than D.C. A.C.is said to be four to five times more dangerous than D.C. For one thing, A.C.causes more severe muscular contractions. For another, it stimulates sweating, which lowers the skin resistance



.Hope it's help u

HEY MATE HERE IS YOUR ANSWER:


A.C. causes more severe muscular contractions. For another, it stimulates sweating, which lowers the skin resistance. Along those lines, it is important to note that resistance goes down rapidly with continued contact. The sweating and the burning away of the skin oils and even the skin itself account for this. That is why it's extremely important to free the victim from contact with the current as quickly as possible (but without endangering yourself) before the climbing current reaches the fibrillation-inducing level.

The frequency of the AC has a lot to do with the effect on the human body. Unfortunately, 60 cycles is in the most harmful range. At this frequency, as little as 25 volts can kill. On the other hand, people have withstood 40,000 volts at a frequency of a million cycles/sec or so without fatal effects.

HOPE IT HELPS YOU
