The body of a snorkeler swimming in salt water has a resistance of about 585 2. If the snorkeler is unfortunate enough to be
struck by the eel, what current will flow through her body?
current:
Incorrect
A current of about 500 mA can cause heart fibrillation and death if it lasts too long.
Is the current through the swimmer in this case large enough to be dangerous?
yes
no
