What kind of current flow can I expect if I run a wire from a screwdriver shaft stuck in sandy soil to 120v, 60 Hz?
Will this current light a 7-1/2w 120v incand. lamp?
bulk resistivities
soil 30k to 50M ohm-meter
tap water 1M to 100M ohm-meter
concrete 200 ohm-meter
human body 5 ohm-meter
copper 20 nanoohm-meter
