Electrical burns usually follow an internal path.

<h3>What are the damages caused by a lightning strike on humans?</h3>

While only 10% of those who are struck by lightning die, many of the 90% who do survive have long-term difficulties.

Depending on the sort of lightning hit and the amount of electricity passing through the body, several effects might result from a lightning strike.

Lightning can destroy tissue, leave deep wounds, and result in skin burns. Additionally, the electrical current may result in a sort of scaring called Lichtenberg figures (branching electric discharges). Unusual fractal patterns emerge as a result of blood vessel destruction that occurs when the lightning current passes through the body to describe this sort of scarring.

A lightning strike can halt the heart, leading to cardiac arrest. It may also result in pulmonary edema and arrhythmias.

Brain injury and a variety of neurological disorders may be brought on by lightning strikes. A person may suffer from spinal cord injuries, go into a coma, feel pain, numbness, or weakness in their limbs, or have sleep or memory issues.

A lightning strike could harm the ear and impair hearing. Additionally, it may result in blindness, corneal damage, and vertigo.

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

It should be about 5.4% which adds up to about 100.8 calories. None of these answer options appear to be consistent with that

Explanation:

1,800*0.20=360 kcals

1,800*0.35=630 kcals
