A rear window defroster consists of a long, flat wire bonded to the inside surface of the window. When current passes through th

e wire, it heats up and melts ice and snow on the window. For one window the wire has a total length of 12.0 m, a width of 1.8 mm, and a thickness of 0.12 mm. The wire is connected to the car's 12.0 V battery and draws 12.0 A. What is the resistivity of the wire material?

Answer:

\rho=1.8\times 10^{-8}\Omega.m

Explanation:

Given:

width of the wire, w=1.8\ mm=1.8\times 10^{-3}\ m

thickness of the flat wire, d=0.12\ mm=1.2\times 10^{-4}

length of the wire, l=12\ m

voltage across the wire, V=12\ V

current through the wire, I=12\ A

Now the net resistance of the wire:

using ohm's law

R=\frac{V}{I}

R=\frac{12}{12}

R=1\ \Omega

We have the relation between the resistivity and the resistance as:

R=\rho.\frac{l}{a}

where:

a = cross sectional area of the wire

\rho = resistivity of the wire material

1=\rho\times \frac{12}{1.8\times 10^{-3}\times 1.2\times 10^{-4}}

\rho=1.8\times 10^{-8}\Omega.m

A 30-mm-diameter copper rod is 1 m long with a yield strength of 70 MPa. Determine the axial force necessary to cause the diamet
ivolga24 [154]

Explanation:

Given data:

d = 30 mm = 0.03 m

L = 1m

S_{y} = 70 Mpa

Δd = -0.0001d

Axial force = ?

validity of elastic deformation assumption.

Solution:

O'₂ = Δd/d = (-0.0001d)/d = -0.0001

For copper,

v = 0.326      E = 119×10³ Mpa

O'₁ = O'₂/v = (-0.0001)/0.326 = 306×10⁶

∵δ = F.L/E.A    and σ = F/A so,

σ = δ.E/L = O'₁ .E = (306×10⁻⁶).(119×10³) = 36.5 MPa

F = σ . A = (36.5 × 10⁻⁶) . (π/4 × (0.03)²) = 25800 KN

S_{y} = 70 MPa > σ = 36.5 MPa

∵ elastic deformation assumption is valid.

so the answer is

F = 25800 K N            and     S_{y} > σ
