Problem 5.20 18 (a) Find the density p of mobile charges in a piece of copper, assuming each atom contributes one free electron. [Look up the necessary physical constants.] (b) Calculate the average electron velocity in a copper wire 1 mm in diameter, carrying a current of 1 A. [Note: This is literally a snail's pace. How, then, can you carry on a long distance telephone conversation?] An apparent detection (B. Cabrera, Phys. Rev. Lett. 48, 1378 (1982)) has never been reproduced- and not for want of trying. For a delightful brief history of ideas about magnetism, see Chapter 1 in D. C. Mattis, The Theory of Magnetism (New York: Harper & Row, 1965). 5.4 Magnetic Vector Potential (c) What is the force of attraction between two such wires, 1 cm apart? 243 (d) If you could somehow remove the stationary positive charges, what would the electrical repulsion force be? How many times greater than the magnetic force is it?
