You have the opportunity of using one of two power supplies for a certain application. Power supply A has a maximum voltage capacity of 1000 volts and a maximum current capacity of 0.1 amps. Power supply B has a maximum voltage capacity of 10 volts and a maximum current capacity of 10 amps. Either power supply would be suitable for your application but you would like to choose the power supply that is the safest. Your lab partner tells you that it is the current that kills you, not the voltage and suggests you pick the one with the lower current capacity. In the interest of safety you should do which of the following?

a. Pick power supply B.
b. Pick either power supply -- they are equally safe.
c. Pick power supply A.
