Under dry conditions, human skin has a very high resistance (around 100,000Ω ), but adding water causes the resistance to drop to around 1,000Ω.
A low voltage can become dangerous under wet conditions!
Suppose a 150 V voltage is applied to dry skin of resistance 100,000 Ω. What current is produced?(Enter your answer in mA)
Suppose the same 150 V voltage is now applied to wet skin of resistance 1,000 Ω. What current is produced?(Enter your answer in mA).
The human body can detect a current of 1.00 mA , usually as a slight tingling sensation.
A current over 100 mA can cause ventricular fibrillation and ev death.
