Question:
In some countries AC outlets near bathtubs are restricted to a Bi. 0 maximum of \(25 \mathrm{~V}\) to minimize the chance of dangerous shocks while bathing. A man is in the tub; the lower end of his torso is well grounded, and the skin resistance of his wet, soapy hands is negligible. He reaches out and accidentally touches a live electric wire. What voltage on the wire would produce a dangerous \(100 \mathrm{~mA}\) current?
