Question

With reference to Example 14.10, determine the best combination of current magnitude and wire diameter to reduce the volume of the solenoid coil to a minimum. Will this minimum volume result in the lowest possible resistance? How does the power dissipation of the coil change with the wire gauge and current value? To solve this problem, you will need to find a table of wire gauge diameter, resistance, and current ratings. Table 1.1 in this book contains some information. The solution can only be found numerically.
