Two lengths of conductors are made from, i) a single solid copper wire of radius 5 mm, and, ii) a bundle of 25 solid copper wires each of radius 1 mm. For each conductor, estimate the resistance per unit length at a frequency of 1 MHz. You may assume a conductivity of σ = 6.7 × 107 Ω −1m−1 and that the skin depth, δ, is given by δ = r 2 µ0σω .
Since the potential of a perfect conducting sphere with a radius of 2.5 cm in empty space is 9 V, calculate the value of the potentials at a distance of 19.4 cm from the center of the sphere in terms of volts.
