How does a stun gun work?

Answer by  abc123567 (19)

Stun guns use electricity and high voltage to shock people. It is used by touching a person with the prongs of the stun gun. It affects the nervous system of whomever is stunned by it and this immobilizes them for a short period of time.

A stun gun works by taking electricity from a standard 9V battery and running it through many internal transformers. This causes the voltage of the electric current to increase to anything between 150,000-200,000 volts. The current has low amps and so it doesn't cause too much damage to the target. The electric current then interferes with the nervous system.

The way a stun gun works is a larger pulsating jolt of energy is send through one contact ot the other. This caused the stunned person muscles to seize.
