Description

This experiment uses an Echocardiogram amplifier and a Tektronix TDS 1012C-EDU Digital Oscilloscope to measure the dipole moment of the heart. The voltage of the heart was taken across the arms of the body and vertically from the legs to the arms. The individual components of the dipole moment of the heart were calculated from voltages reported from the EKG. The typical value of the dipole moment of the heart is on the magnitude of 10^−12???? and the direction is θ=±30°. The value measured in this experiment was |???| = (1.7 ± 0.6) × 10^−13???? and the angle was ?? = −32.7°. The magnitude of the dipole moment was an order of magnitude off from the expected value.
