A copper wire is dCu = 0.0500 cm in diameter,
3.00 m long, and has a charge carrier density of
8.50x10^28 electrons/m3. The copper wire is
attached to an equal length of aluminum wire
with diameter dAl = 0.0100 cm and charge
carrier density of 6.02x10^28 electrons/m3. A
current of 0.400 A flows through the copper wire.
a. The ratio of current densities in the two wires,
JCu/JAl is:
b. The ratio of drift velocities in the two wires,
vd-Cu/vd-Al is:
dcu = 0.0500 cm
i = 0.400 A
Alambre de cobre
L = 3.00 m
dal = 0.0100 cm
Alambre de aluminio
L = 3.00 m
