The Taser, an ostensibly nonlethal weapon used by police to subdue unruly suspects, shoots two conducting darts

Question:

The Taser, an ostensibly nonlethal weapon used by police to subdue unruly suspects, shoots two conducting darts into the victim’s body. Thin wires connect the darts back to the weapon, and once the darts are embedded the weapon applies a 1200-V potential across them and delivers short pulses of electric charge to the darts. Each pulse carries 100 μC of charge. How much energy does the weapon need to supply to each charge pulse as it moves through the body from one dart to the other?
