Eels are able to generate current with biological cells called electroplaques. The electroplaques are arranged in 100 rows, each row contains 5000 electroplaques. Each electroplaque has an e.m.f. of 0.15 V and internal resistance of 0.25 Omega . The water surrounding the eel completes a circuit between the head and tail. If water surrounding it has a resistance of 500 Omega , the current an eel can produce in water is about
