A copper conductor has a diameter of 0.6 in and it is 1200 ft long. Assume
that it carries a total dc current of 50 A. Find the total resistance of the
conductor and the current density. The resistivity of copper is 1.72 x 10-8 2-m.
What effect does temperature have on the electrical conductivity of a semiconducting material? How does this compare with the effect of temperature on the electrical conductivity of a typical metal?
Please choose the correct answer and explain if possible. Thank you.
