Question



  1. A 5.0 cm length of a cylindrical copper wire has a radius of 0.01 mm. The resistivity of copper is 1.68 × 108[Ωm]. 

(a) What is the length of the wire in m? 

(b) What is the cross-sectional area of the wire in m2? 

(c) What is the resistance of the wire? 

(d) If a voltage of 2.8 × 109 V is set up across the ends of the wire, what is the current flowing through the wire? 

(e) How much charge will drift through a cross-section of this wire in 0.001s? 

(f) What is the rate of energy dissipation when that current is flowing through the wire?
