A coil of Nichrome wire is 25.0 m long. The wire has a diameter of .400 mm and is at 20.0C. If it carries a 0.400 A current, what are: (a) the magnitude of the electric field in the wire, (b) the power delivered to it?, (c) If the temperature is increased to 340C and the potential difference across the wire remains constant, how much power is delivered?
as part of a lecture demonstration, a physics professor plans to hold an ununsulated current carrying wire in her hands. For safety sake, the potential differnece between her hands is to be no more that 1.50v. She holds her hands 1.20m apart, with the wire stretched tightly between them. The wire is to carry 6.00 A of current and is to be made of aluminum. What is the minimum wire radius that is consistent with safety? p for aluminimum = 2.75 x 10 -8 omega-m

In the figure below a bar of length L, width w, and thickness d is positioned a distance h underneatha long straight wire that carries a large but unknown steady current Iwire (w is small compared to h,and h is small compared to the length of the long straight wire). The material that the bar is madeof is known to have n positive mobile charge carriers (“holes”) per cubic meter, each of charge e, andthese are the only mobile charge carriers in the bar. An ammeter measures the small current I passingthrough the bar. (a) Draw connecting wires from the voltmeter to the bar, showing clearly how the ends of the con-necting wires must be positioned on the bar in order to permit determining the amount of current in the long straight wire Iwire.
