From your understanding, what is the differnece between a grounding wire and a grounded wire? I answered this way ... Grounding wire is connecting to ground or to a conductive body extends the ground connections. Whereas the grounded wire is connected to earth or to some conducting body that serves inplace of the earth. The replied I got from a classmate "I feel your definitions here aren't exactly different. The first describes connecting to ground and the second to earth. Those are one and the same. Am I missing your meaning, or do I have that correct?" Is he right or am I really missing the subject? Please reply me soon. Thank you

A 0.1-W small cylindrical resistor mounted ona lower part of a vertical circuit board is 0.3 in long andhas a diameter of 0.2 in. The view of the resistor is largelyblocked by another circuit board facing it, and the heat transferthrough the connecting wires is negligible. The air is free to flow through the large parallel flow passages between theboards as a result of natural convection currents. If the airtemperature at the vicinity of the resistor is 120°F, determinethe approximate surface temperature of the resistor.
