Technician a says printed circuit boards may become "etched" if touched with bare hands. technician b says printed circuit boards are used to simplify the wiring of circuits. who is correct?

Both technicians are correct.

Explanation:

Printed circuits boards are copper layers attached to a dielectric plane with some design on it. This design is made to direction the current flow through a predefined path or electrical circuit. This way is easier to interconnect electronic devices instead of using cables for each connection.

Since the printed circuit board PCB its made of cooper, touching the printed circuit board may cause in the middle term corrosion and even rust, because the cooper in touch with the salt, sweat, and other stuff from the fingerprints can react in the metal surface, creating corrosion.

double the distance = divide strength by 4
