What resistance does the human body have from the palm of one hand to the palm

What resistance does the human body have from the palm of one hand to the palm of the other, if at a voltage of 200 V a current of 2 mA flows through it?

Initial data: U (voltage on the human body) = 200 V; I (electric current that flows through the human body) = 2 mA (2 * 10 ^ -3 A).

We calculate the resistance that the human body will have according to Ohm’s law for a section of the circuit: R = U / I.

Let’s make the calculation: R = 200/2 * 10 ^ -3 = 100 * 10 ^ 3 Ohm (100 kOhm).

Answer: The human body will have a resistance of 100 kΩ.
