Direction: Solve each problem. Show complete solution in a separate sheet of paper.
1 What is the resistance of a 30 m silver wire with a 2 mm diameter?
2. A carbon wire with a 3 mm diameter has a resistance of 100 ohms. How long lo
the wire?
3. A 200 m long aluminum wire has the same resistance and cross-sectional arca
as a carbon wire. What is the length of the carbon wire?
4. A wire made of an unknown substance has a resistance of 125 ms2. The wire
has a length of 1.8 m and a cross-sectional area of 2.35x10-5 m2. What is the
resistivity of the substance from which the wire is made? Give your answer in
scientific notation.
5. Compute the resistance of a hardened copper rod 2 meters long and 8 mm in
diameter if the resistivity of the material is 1.756 x 10-8 ohm-meters.
6. A 0.500-meter length of wire with a cross-sectional area of 3.14 x 10-6 meterS
squared is found to have a resistance of 2.53 x 10-3 ohms. According to the
resistivity chart, from what material is the wire made?
