Early heart pacemakers used an RC circuit to stimulate the heart at regular intervals. A particular pacemaker is designed to operate at 70 beats per minute and sends a pulse to the heart every time the voltage across the capacitor reaches 7.0 volts. Assume that the capacitor discharges completely and instantly when it sends the pulse to the heart. If the RC circuit consists of a 12-V battery and a 20-µF capacitor, what is the resistance R of the resistor? R = x10 TOOLS 22
