Question: Suppose that a persons body resistance is 950 . (a) What current passes through the body when the person accidentally is connected to 110 V?

Suppose that a person’s body resistance is 950 Ω.

(a) What current passes through the body when the person accidentally is connected to 110 V?
(b) If there is an alternative path to ground whose resistance is 45 Ω, what current passes through the person?
(c) If the voltage source can produce at most 1.5A, how much current passes through the person in case (b)?
