Thank you!

According to a July 20.0, 2004, newspaper article, a Hindu holy man known as "Current Baba" touches an electric wire three times daily to become "intoxicated." According to a doctor quoted in the article, "The human body can absorb currents up to 12.0 volts. In this case, however, repeated exposure to electricity seems to have built up ["Current Baba's"] body's tolerance levels to as much as 16.0 volts."

***** Question below can be answered in a sentence or two or more

What is wrong with the doctors statement? What do you think he really meant to say? Essay answers are limited to about 5 words (38 characters maximum, including spaces). 38 Character(s) remaining Since Current Baba was after the maximum intoxication. he should have his body wet. In that case, how much current would he get with each jolt? (The resistance of the body varies from approximately 5 k Ohm (when it is very dry) to about 1 k Ohm (when it is wet).)

Explanation / Answer

1. current not only depends on v but also on r so nedd to mention r also

2.I=v/r = 16/1kohm =16 mA
