You apply a potential difference of 4.50 V between the ends of a wire that is 2.50 m in length and 0.654 mm in radius. The resulting current through the wire is 17.6 A.
A.What is the resistivity of the wire?
1) Why is the resistivity of the filter cake (the solid) higher
than resistivity of filtrate, for after doing the filtration
drilling fluids?
2) Should drilling fluids be high in resistivity or low? and
why?

what is the new resistivity and resistance as a function of ? and
??
b. Small aircraft often use 24-V electrical systems rather than
the 12-V systems used in automobiles, even though the electrical
power requirements are roughly the same. This is because a 24-V
system uses...
A 10.3 g wire has a density of 5.9 g/cm3 and a resistivity of
1.51 × 10−7 Ω · m . The wire has a resistance of 106 Ω . How long
is the wire? The wire is made up of atoms with molecular mass 48
g/mol. What is the drift speed of the electrons when there is a
voltage drop of 243.8 V across the wire? Assume there is one

At a certain temperature T1, a (1.8922x10^2) mm rod
of a copper-nickel alloy has a resistivity of (2.770x10^1) x
10-8 Ω-m. For pure copper, the resistivity at 0°C is
1.58 x 10-8 Ω-m and the change in resistivity per degree
increase in temperature is 6.50 x 10-11 (Ω-m)/°C. The
value of A for nickel in copper is 1.18 x 10-6 Ω-m and
the coefficient of thermal expansion of this alloy is (1.543x10^1)
x 10-6(°C)-1.
If the resistivity of this alloy...
Copper wire has a resistivity ρ = 1.7 × 10-8
Ω⋅m when at 20°C and it has a temperature coefficient α =
3.9 × 10-3 K-1. A solid cylinder of copper of
length L = 45 cm and diameter D =
1.5 mm has one end held at T1 =
6°C and the other end is held at T2 =
270°C. The temperature increases linearly between the two
ends of the cylinder. Determine the total resistance in
milliohms.
