Plant cost of ac transmission is much lower compared to dc transimission. When fault occurs it is easy to interrupt ac supply. It is the muscles that cause the repulsive effect as they involuntarily contract due to the shock. So if it is AC or DC, shock of a live wire will cause the same effect i. The minimum current a human can feel depends on the current type AC or DC and frequency. The current may, if it is high enough, cause tissue damage or fibrillation which leads to cardiac arrest.
It is common for a 12V and 24V LED to have the same brightness, especially on short lengths of up to 5 meters. The main advantage to using a 24V supply is the fact you can run a longer lenght of LED strip before experiencing a voltage drop.
If you have a power limited 24vac your pretty safe , but if you have 24v with high amperage potential its dangerous because it can cause a fire. Generally speaking the cutoff limit that the NEC sets for lethal voltage is 50v this is generally about how much it actually takes to push enough current through your body to stop the heart. A voltage of 60V per cm across your body will cause tissue damage.
If the entry and exit points are somewhere like your leg, you can survive even the frighteningly high voltages from lightning. If the voltage goes across your heart, even VDC could be fatal and stop it. Every electrical service has some amps and some volts; the typical average home needs amps and volts. Assuming a steady current flow as opposed to a shock from a capacitor or from static electricity , shocks above 2, volts are often fatal, with those above 11, volts being usually fatal, though exceptional cases have been noted.
An electric shock from a volt power point can kill you, but on a dry day your car door can zap you with 10, volts and just make you swear. The primary reason that power is transmitted at high voltages is to increase efficiency.
The lower current that accompanies high voltage transmission reduces resistance in the conductors as electricity flows along the cables. This means that thin, light-weight wires can be used in long-distance transmission. In a linear circuit of fixed resistance, if we increase the voltage, the current goes up, and similarly, if we decrease the voltage, the current goes down.
This means that if the voltage is high the current is high, and if the voltage is low the current is low. MPTT is applied in Radio communications, where the power amplifier transmits the maximum amount of signal to the antenna if and only if load impedance in the circuit is equal to the source impedance.
It is also applied in audio systems, where the voice is to be transmitted to the speaker. The University of Colorado has graciously allowed us to use the following Phet simulation that explores how alternating current works.

Alternating current Alternating current AC is the type of electric current generated by the vast majority of power plants and used by most power distribution systems. Figure 1.
