Question

Es frecuente que en las instalaciones eléctricas domésticas se utilice alambre de cobre de 2.05 mm de diámetro. Determine la resistencia de un alambre de ese tipo con longitud de 24.0 m

Answer 1

Answer:

The resistance is 0.124 ohm.

Explanation:

It is common for domestic electrical installations to use copper wire with a diameter of 2.05 mm. Determine the resistance of such a wire with a length of 24.0 m.

diameter, d = 2.05 mm

radius, r = 1.025 mm

Length, L = 24 m

resistivity of copper = 1.7 x 10^-8 ohm m

Let the resistance is R.

$R =\rho \frac{L}{A}\\\\R = \frac {1.7\times10^{-8}\times 24}{3.14\times1.025\times1.025\times 10^{-6}}\\\\R = 0.124 ohm$
