Thread: a shock

A person notices a mild shock if the current along a path through the thumb and index finger exceeds 65.4mA. Calculate the maximum allowable voltage without shock across the thumb and index finger with a dry-skin resistance of 4.12E+5 ohm.


Calculate the maximum allowable voltage with a wet-skin resistance of 1630 ohm.

Calculate the maximum allowable voltage with a wet-skin resistance of 1630 ohm.

Ohm's Law: V = IR.

thank you so much Dan, for just pointing me in the right direction...
in this case, thats really all I needed and I appreciate it
