Answer:
Current, I = 0.0011 A
Explanation:
It is given that,
Diameter of rod, d = 2.56 cm
Radius of rod, r = 1.28 cm = 0.0128 m
The resistivity of the pure silicon,
Length of rod, l = 20 cm = 0.2 m
Voltage,
The resistivity of the rod is given by :
R = 893692.30 ohms
Current flowing in the rod is calculated using Ohm's law as :
V = I R
I = 0.0011 A
So, the current flowing in the rod is 0.0011 A. Hence, this is the required solution.
