In the circuit shown in the diagram below, two thick wires connect a 1.2 volt battery to a Nichrome (NiCr) wire. Each thick connecting wire is 14 cm long, and has a radius of 9 mm. The thick wires are made of copper, which has 8.36e+28 mobile electrons per cubic meter, and an electron mobility of 0.00434 (m/s)/(V/m). The Nichrome wire is 8 cm long, and has a radius of 2 mm. Nichrome has 9e+28 mobile electrons per cubic meter, and an electron mobility of 7e-05 (m/s)/(V/m). What is the magnitude of the electric field in the thick copper wire? V/m What is the magnitude of the electric field in the thin Nichrome wire? V/m Copper Nichrome Copper
