The voltage output of a cattle prod is typically around 4,500 to 5,000 volts although it can be much lower and much higher. Tasers typically have a voltage around 50,000 volts but once skin contact is made the voltage drops to around 1,200 volts. The power of cattle prods and tasers is more dependent on the amps delivered than the actual voltage.

Is it the value of input voltage equal the value of output voltage?

No. There are several factors that may affect the output voltage. For instance: Resistors, Transformer, Voltage regulators and others that can control the output voltage to a certain level.


How do rectifier circuits stabilize the output voltage when the input voltage is subject to fluctuations?

Rectifiers don't "stabilize the output voltage" of rectifier circuits when input voltage fluctuates. The rectifiers just rectify the input, and the output will fluctuate as the input does. Another form of "conditioning" of the rectified output is needed to address the issue of fluctuations. And we use the term regulation to talk about the effect of "stabilizing" an output voltage. Through regulation, the output will be resistant to changes in voltage when changes in the input voltage occur.


What is voltage gain?

Voltage gain is the ratio of the output voltage of an amplifier to its input voltage.


Why clipping happen for op-amp?

Clipping occurs in the voltage waveform when the input voltage, multiplied by the voltage gain of the op-amp circuit, exceeds the op-amp supply voltage as limited by the output network. The supply voltage and output network, limits the maximum voltage that can be achieved at the output. The op-amp behaves normally within its range of maximum voltage output, and then it is clipped when it reaches the maximum voltage of the circuit.


What are the output voltage and current of a transformer determined by?

The secondary (output) voltage is determined by the primary voltage and the turns ratio of the transformer. The secondary current is determined by the secondary voltage and the load resistance.

Can you use a lamp as a cattle prod?

Yes and no. The wiring and metal parts of a lamp may be useful, but the rest of it may be an encumbrance. Also, you can't simply plug it into a wall and have a cattle prod without having a transformer. The key to making a cattle prod is high voltage and low amperage. The standard wall outlet will give you about 25 amps and only 120 volts. That needs to be fixed before you have a cattle prod.

What does the cowboy slang 'on the prod' mean?

Cowboys loved a colorful phrase! On the prod or proddy meant spoiling for a fight. A prod was what a cowboy used to spur cattle into moving more quickly.


What combination of volts to amps in cattle prod type devices will kill pernicious weeds such as thistles?

No combination of volts to amps in cattle prod type devices kills pernicious weeds such as thistles. Volts and amps are linked by a mathematical principle, known as Ohm's law, that states that V=IR, where V is voltage, I is current (amps) and R is resistance. In general, biological systems -- especially human -- are most dramatically affected by amperage. Any cattle prod type device that delivers sufficient amperage to fry weeds will be as dangerous to the user as to the property.

What is the effect of diode voltage drop as the output voltage?

The effect of diode voltage drop as the output voltage is that the input voltage will not be totally transferred to the output because power loss in the diode . The output voltage will then be given by: vout=(vin)-(the diode voltage drop).

Is it ok to use a cattle prod on a dog?

== == NO never. Don't risk it, you might kill it. Get some basic training, buy a book. There is no need ever to do that.. If you can't handle the dog, give it to a loving home. Try the cattle prod on yourself see how it feels that gives you your answer.
