Determine how much current goes up one leg

Reference no: EM13517536

A person standing barefoot on the ground 20 m from the point of a lightning strike experiences an instantaneous potential difference of 300 V between his feet.

If we assume a skin resistance of both of his legs is 1.0 k Omega, how much current goes up one leg and back down the other?
