What length of a copper wire of cross-sectional are 0.01 mm2, resistivity 1.7 × 10–8 Ohm m, will be needed to prepare a resistance of 1.7 kΩ?
0.1 km
0.7 km
1 km
10 km
Using R = ρLA,
We get Length(L) = 1 km.
Calculate the electric field in a copper wire of cross-sectional are 2.0 mm2 carrying a current of 1 A. The resistivity of copper = 1.7 ×10−8Ωm.
