Answer:
The area is [tex]A = 0.015 \ m^2 [/tex]
The resistance is [tex]R = 1.0 *10^{5} \ \Omega [/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The relativity of dry skin is [tex]\rho = 1 * 10^6\ \Omega\cdot m[/tex]
The thickness of the skin is [tex]d = 1.5 \ mm = 1.5 *10^{-3} \ m[/tex]
Generally the area of a flat palm with length = 0.10 m and breath b = 0.15 m is mathematically represented as
[tex]A = d * L[/tex]
[tex]A = 0.10 * 0.15 [/tex]
[tex]A = 0.015 \ m^2 [/tex]
Generally the resistance is mathematically represented as
[tex]R = \frac{\rho * d}{ A }[/tex]
=> [tex]R = \frac{ 1.0 *10^{6} * 1.5*10^{-3}}{ 0.015 }[/tex]
=> [tex]R = 1.0 *10^{5} \ \Omega [/tex]
