Textbook Question
Chapter 24, Problem 11P
The element niobium, which is a metal, is a superconductor (i.e., no electrical resistance) at temperatures below 9 K. However, the superconductivity is destroyed if the magnetic field at the surface of the wire of the metal readies or exceeds 0.10 T. What is the maximum current in a straight, 3.0-mm-diameter superconducting niobium wire?
Hint: You can assume that all the current flows in the center of the wire.
