Question

A cylindrical wire has a length of 2.80 m and a radius of 1.03 mm. It carries a current of current of 1.35 A, when a a voltage of 0.0320 V is applied across the ends of the wire. From this information calculate the resistance of the wire.

Answer 1

Answer:

0.023 Ohms

Explanation:

Given data

Length= 2.8m

radius= 1.03mm

current I= 1.35 A

voltage V= 0.032V

We know that from Ohm's law

V= IR

Now  R= V/I

Substitute

R= 0.032/1.35

R= 0.023 Ohms

Hence the resistance is 0.023 Ohms
