The resistivity of a 1. 0 m long wire is 1. 72 × 10^-8 ωm and its cross sectional area is 2. 0 × 10^-6 m^2. If the wire carries a current of 0. 20 a, what is the voltage across the wire?

Respuesta :

Voltage across the wire will be 0.072 V. Ohm's law claims that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.

What is ohm’s law?

Ohm's law claims that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.

Given data;

ρ(resistivity)=1. 72 × 10^-8 ωm

L(length of wire)=1. 0 m

A (cross-sectional area =2. 0 × 10^-6 m²

Current(I)= 0. 20 A

Voltage(V)=?

This current-voltage connection may be expressed mathematically as,

The Equation of Ohm's Law;

[tex]\rm V=IR \\\\ V=I(\frac{\rho L}{A} )\\\\ V=0.20 \times \frac{72 \times 10^{-8}\times 1.0}{2 \times 10^{-6}}\\\\ V=0.072 \ V[/tex]

Hence,voltage across the wire will be 0.072 V.
