Concept explainers

Resistivity

Resistivity is a characteristic property of the conductor’s material that measures the extent to which the material opposes the flow of current. It is denoted by the Greek letter “rho”. Electrical resistivity, also known as specific resistance, depends on the nature of the material of the conductor and is unaffected by its dimensions.

Explain why R=R0(1 + a?T) for the temperature variation of the resistance R of an object is not as accurate as P=P0(1 + a?T) which gives the temperature variation of resistivity P.
Review. When a straight wire is warmed, its resistance is given by R = R0,[1 + a(T T0)] according to Equation 27.20, where a is the temperature coefficient of resistivity. This expression needs to be modified if we include the change in dimensions of the wire due to thermal expansion. For a copper wire of radius 0.100 0 mm and length 2.000 m, find its resistance at 100.0C, including the effects of both thermal expansion and temperature variation of resistivity. Assume the coefficients are known to four significant figures.
When a straight wire is heated, its resistance changes according to the equation R = R0 [1 + (T T0)] (Eq. 17.7), where is the temperature coefficient of resistivity. (a) Show that a more precise result, which includes the length and area of a wire change when it is heated, is R=R0[1+(TT0)][1+(TT0)][1+2(TT0)] where is the coefficient of linear expansion. (See Topic 10.) (b) Compare the two results for a 2.00-m-long copper wire of radius 0.100 mm, starting at 20.0C and heated to 100.0C.

Residential building codes typically require the use of 12-gauge copper wire (diameter 0.205 cm) for wiring receptacles. Such circuits carry currents as large as 20.0 A. If a wire of smaller diameter (with a higher gauge number) carried that much current, the wire could rise to a high temperature and cause a fire. (a) Calculate the rate at which internal energy is produced in 1.00 m of 12-gauge copper wire carrying 20.0 A. (b) Repeat the calculation for a 12-gauge aluminum wire. (c) Explain whether a 12-gauge aluminum wire would be as safe as a copper wire.
Review. Ail aluminum rod has a resistance of 1.23 at 20.0C. Calculate the resistance of the rod at 120C by accounting for the changes in both the resistivity and the dimensions of the rod. The coefficient of linear expansion for aluminum is 2.40 10-6 (C)-1
While taking photographs in Death Valley on a day when the temperature is 58.0C, Bill Hiker finds that a certain voltage applied to a copper wire produces a current of 1.000 A.

Assume that no change occurs in the wires shape and size.
The potential difference across the filament of a light-bulb is maintained at a constant value while equilibrium temperature is being reached.
