Three wires, of the same diameter, are connected in turn between two points maintained at a constant potential difference. Their resistivities and lengths are r and L (wire A), 1.2r and 1.2L (wire B), and 0.9r and L (wire C). Rank the wires according to the rate at which energy is transferred to thermal energy within them, greatest first.
Suppose you have a rod of pure silicon with a diameter of 2.79cm and a length of 20.6cm. These rods are often used in experiments, such as the Large Hadron Collider in France/Switzerland to detect high-energy particles, and they have a very high resistivity of 2300Ω⋅m.
What current, in amperes, flows through the rod when a potential difference of 1.23* 10^3 V is applied between its ends ?
