Find the resistance at 50°c of copper wire 2mm in diameter and 3m long
mr Goodwill [35]
0.0179 ohms for copper.

0.0184 ohms for annealed copper



Ď = R (A/l) where

Ď = electrical resistivity

R = electrical resistance of a uniform specimen

A = cross sectional area

l = length



Solve for R by multiplying both sides by l/A

R = Ď(l/A)



The cross section of the wire is pi * 1^2 mm = 3.14159 square mm = 3.14159e-6 square meters.

The length is 3 meters. So l/A = 3/3.14159e-6 = 9.5493e5



Ď for copper is 1.68e-8 so 1.68e-8 * 9.5493e5 = 1.60e-2 ohms at 20 C

But copper has a temperature coefficient (α) of 0.00386 per degree C.

So the resistance value needs to be adjusted based upon how far from 20 C the temperature is.

50 - 20 = 30 C

So 0.00386 * 30 = 0.1158 meaning that the actual resistance at 50 C will be 11.58% higher.

So 1.1158 * 0.016 = 0.0179 ohms.



If you're using annealed copper, the values for Ď and the temperature coefficient change.

Ď = 1.72e-8

α = 0.00393



Doing the math, you get

1.72e-8 * 9.5493e5 * (1 + 30 * 0.00393) = 0.0184 ohms

During a testing process, a worker in a factory mounts a bicycle wheel on a stationary stand and applies a tangential resistive
Alex

Answer:

616.223684211 N

Explanation:

F_r = Resistive force on the wheel = 115 N

F = Force acting on sprocket

r_2 = Radius of sprocket = 4.75 cm

r_1 = Radius of wheel = 25 cm

Moment of inertia is given by

I=mr_1^2\\\Rightarrow I=1.7\times 0.25^2\\\Rightarrow I=0.10625\ kgm^2

Torque

\tau=I\alpha\\\Rightarrow \tau=0.10625\times 4.9\\\Rightarrow \tau=0.520625\ Nm

Torque is given by

\tau=Fr_2-F_rr_1\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{\tau+F_rr_1}{r_2}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{0.520625+115\times 0.25}{0.0475}\\\Rightarrow F=616.223684211\ N

The force on the chain is 616.223684211 N
