Question
A wire 6.50 $\mathrm{m}$ long with diameter of 2.05 $\mathrm{mm}$ has a resistance of 0.0290$\Omega .$ What material is the wire most likely made of?
Step 1
5 \, \text{m}$, the diameter $d = 2.05 \, \text{mm}$, and the resistance $R = 0.0290 \, \Omega$. We want to find the resistivity $\rho$ of the material the wire is made of. Show more…
