Question

We now divide the wire into two equal segments of length L/2 We assume that each segment is 'short' enough so that the specific resistance does not vary a lot along its length the specific resistance can be considered constant and equal to its value at the center of each segment. Answer the following questions as a function of rho_0. L A. What is the length of each segment? What is the distance from beginning of the wire to the center of each piece? 1) Segment 1 2) Segment 2 What is the specific resistance of each segment? 1) Segment 1: 2) Segment 2: What is the Resistance each piece? 1) Segment 1: 2) Segment 2:

Explanation / Answer

1. Each segment of L/2 length

2.L/4 and 3L/4,

3.p° in each case ... Same as the initial value.

4.p°L/2A in each case. Each equal to R/2

5. p°L/A equal to R.... Two resistance of R/2 In series.
