Question

A person may die from an electric shock if

• A. The voltage is high
• B. Voltage is low
• C. Current is low
• D. Resistance is high

Answer 1

The correct option is A The voltage is high

The severity of injury from electrical shock depends on the voltage or amount of electrical current and the length of time the current passes through the body. For example, 1/10 of an ampere (amp) of electricity going through the body for just 2 seconds is enough to cause death.
Hence, a person may die from an electric shock the voltage is high.
