To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the rules and concepts related to logarithmic operations.
From the definition of logarithm we know that,
In this way for the given example we have that a logarithm with base 10 expressed in the problem can be represented as,
We can express this also as,
By properties of the logarithms we know that the logarithm of a power of a number is equal to the product between the exponent of the power and the logarithm of the number.
So this can be expressed as
Since the definition of the base logarithm 10 of 10 is equal to 1 then
The value of the given logarithm is equal to 6
(A) We can solve the problem by using Ohm's law, which states:
where
V is the potential difference across the electrical device
I is the current through the device
R is its resistance
For the heater coil in the problem, we know
and 
, therefore we can rearrange Ohm's law to find the current through the device:
(B) The resistance of a conductive wire depends on three factors. In fact, it is given by:
where
is the resistivity of the material of the wire
L is the length of the wire
A is the cross-sectional area of the wire
Basically, we see that the longer the wire, the larger its resistance; and the larger the section of the wire, the smaller its resistance.
