A 1.70 m cylindrical rod of diameter 0.550 cm is connected to a
power supply that maintains a constant potential difference of
12.0 V across its ends, while an ammeter measures the current
through it. You observe that at room temperature (20.0°C) the
ammeter reads 18.3 A, while at 92.0°C it reads 17.2 A. You
can ignore any thermal expansion of the rod.
