Suppose you have a rod of pure silicon with a diameter of 2.79cm and a length of 20.6cm. These rods are often used in experiments, such as the Large Hadron Collider in France/Switzerland to detect high-energy particles, and they have a very high resistivity of 2300Ω⋅m.
What current, in amperes, flows through the rod when a potential difference of 1.23* 10^3 V is applied between its ends ?
A cell of em.f. 2V and external
resistance 0.5 Q is connected across a resistor
