Explanation:
Given that: d= 1.628 mm = 1.628 x 10-3 I= 12 mA = 12.0 x 10-8 A The Cross-sectional area of the wire is:
a) <em>The Potential difference across a 2.00 in length of a 14-gauge copper </em>
<em> wire: </em>
L= 2.00 m
From Table Copper Resistivity = 1.72 x 10-8 S1 • m The Resistance of the Copper wire is:
=0.0165Ω
The Potential difference across the copper wire is:
V=IR
=2.063*10^-4
b) The Potential difference if the wire were made of Silver: From Table: Silver Resistivity p= 1.47 x 10-8 S1 • m
The Resistance of the Silver wire is:
=0.014Ω
The Potential difference across the Silver wire is:
V=IR
=1.75*10^-4
Answer:
d) 1.2 mT
Explanation:
Here we want to find the magnitude of the magnetic field at a distance of 2.5 mm from the axis of the coaxial cable.
First of all, we observe that:
- The internal cylindrical conductor of radius 2 mm can be treated as a conductive wire placed at the axis of the cable, since here we are analyzing the field outside the radius of the conductor. The current flowing in this conductor is
I = 15 A
- The external conductor, of radius between 3 mm and 3.5 mm, does not contribute to the field at r = 2.5 mm, since 2.5 mm is situated before the inner shell of the conductor (at 3 mm).
Therefore, the net magnetic field is just given by the internal conductor. The magnetic field produced by a wire is given by
where
is the vacuum permeability
I = 15 A is the current in the conductor
r = 2.5 mm = 0.0025 m is the distance from the axis at which we want to calculate the field
Substituting, we find:
