1. Amperes, is the SI unit (also a fundamental unit) responsible for current.

2. I = \frac{q}{t} Δq over Δt technically

Rearrange for Δq

I x Δt = Δq

1.5mA x 5 = Δq

Δq = 0.0075

Divide this by the fundamental charge "e"

Electrons: 0.0075 / 1.60 x 10^-19

Electrons: 4.6875 x 10^16 or 4.7 x 10^16

3.  So we know that the end resistances will be equal so:

ρ = RA/L

ρL = RA

ρL/A = R

Now we can set up two equations one for the resistance of the aluminum bar and one for the copper: Where 1 represents aluminum and 2 represents copper

\frac{p1L1}{A1}  = \frac{p2L2}{A2}\\

We are looking for L2 so we can isolate using algebra to get:

\frac{A2(\frac{P1L1}{A1}) }{P2} = L2

If you fill in those values you get 0.0205

or 2.05 cm

<span>Like charges repel and opposite charges attract.
The further away two charged objects are the weaker the electrical force between them.
The closer two charged objects are the stronger the electrical force between them.
Hope this helps :)</span>
