Chapter 27, Problem 55EAP

You need to design a 1 .0 A fuse that “blows” if the current exceeds 1 .0 A. The fuse material in your stockroom melts at a current density of 500 A/cm2. What diameter wire of this material will do the job?

A wire has a current density of 7.09 x 10° A/m?. If the cross-sectional area of the wire is 2.11 mm², what current I does the wire carry? A. With this current, how much time t is required for 4.05 x 100 electrons to pass any point on the wire?
A long silver metal rod with a circular cross-section has an estimated diameter of cross-section 1 mm. You set up the rod so that a current of 2 A flows through the cross-section. Also, 5.0x1028 m-3 is the free electron density of silver. What is the magnitude of the drift speed of the electron flowing in the rod?
Shown below is a copper wire with the following characteristics: Diameter: 1.45 mm.00145m 1.45 × 10-8 m Number density of electrons: 8.47 x 1028 electrons/m³. Conductivity: 5.96 x 107 S/m a. Calculate the drift velocity (magnitude and direction) of the electrons in the wire when a current of 5.00 A is running through it. b. What direction is the current moving? c. Remembering that current density is a vector, calculate the magnitude and direction of the current density of this wire. d. Calculate the resistivity of the wire. e. Calculate the resistance of this wire if it were 10.0 m in length.
