A piece of wire of cross-sectional area 277.4 cm^2 is made into a resistor of resistance 539.2 ohm. Given that the resistivity of the material used to create the resistor is 79.8 ohm-metre, What is the lenght of the wire?
Thermocoax is a type of coaxial cable used for high-frequency filtering in cryogenic quantum computing experiments. Its stainless-steel shield has an inner diameter of 0.350 mm, and its Nichrome conductor has a diameter of 0.170 mm. Nichrome is used because its resistance does not change much in going from room temperature to near absolute zero. The insulating dielectric is magnesium oxide (MgO), which has a dielectric constant of 9.70. Calculate the capacitance per meter of Thermocoax.
