<span>5.98 x 10^-2 ohms.
Resistance is defined as:
R = rl/A
where
R = resistance in ohms
r = resistivity (given as 1.59x10^-8)
l = length of wire.
A = Cross sectional area of wire.
So plugging into the formula, the known values, including the area of a circle being pi*r^2, gives:
R = 1.59x10^-8 * 3.00 / (pi * (5.04 x 10^-4)^2)
R = (4.77 x 10^-8) / (pi * 2.54016 x 10 ^-7)
R = (4.77 x 10^-8) / (7.98015 x 10^-7)
R = 5.98 x 10^-2 ohms
So that wire has a resistance of 5.98 x 10^-2 ohms.</span>

Answer: Only Tech B is correct.
Explanation:
First, tech A is wrong.
The circuits that can be compared with links in a chain are the series circuit, and it can be related to the links in a chain because if one of the elements breaks, the current can not flow furthermore (because the elements in the circuit are connected in series) while in a parallel circuit if one of the branches breaks, the current still can flow by other branches.
Also in a parallel circuit, the sum of the currents of each path is equal to the current that comes from the source, so Tech B is correct, the total current is equal to the sum of the currents flowing in each branch of the circuit.
Answer:
6 A
Explanation:
First of all, we need to calculate the equivalent resistance of the circuit. The three resistors are connected in parallel, so their equivalent resistance is given by:
And now we can use Ohm's law to find the current in the circuit:
