The compressor on an air conditioner draws89.6 A when it starts up. The start-up time isabout 0.282 s.How much charge passes a cross-sectionalarea of the circuit in this time?Answer in units of C.
A conducting rod with a circular cross-section (this rod is a cylinder) has a radius of 1o
mm and is 2 metres long. The rod is made of aluminum, so its conductivity is 3.6 x 10' s/m. A
potential difference (voltage) is applied at both ends of this rod and the current is I= 90 A.
That's a lot of current!
a. What is the resistance of the rod, when measured from one end to the other?
b. Calculate the current density in the rod along its length.
. Determine the electric field amplitude at all locations within the rod.
d. What is the electric potential difference between the two ends of the rod.
