Aresistor is made out of a long wire having a length l. each end of the wire is attached to a termina of a battery providing a constant voltage v0. a currect i flows through the wire. if the wire were cut in half, making two wires of length l/2, and both wires were attached to the battery (the end of both wires attached to one terminal, and the other ends attached to the other terminal), what would be the total currect flowing through the two wires? a) 4i b) 2i c) i d) i/2 e) i/4

Option A

Solution:

As per the question:

Initially, voltage is

Current is 'I' A

Length of the wire is L

Now,

We know that:

          (1)

where

A = Cross sectional area of the wire

From eqn (1), if other things are taken to be constant, then

R ∝ L                 (2)

Thus

When the wire is cut into two reducing the length to

Resistance, R' =

Now, when these wires are connected as described, the connection is in parallel, therefore, the equivalent resistance of the two wires:

Now, from Ohm's law:

Since, according to the question voltage is constant, thus

I ∝

I ∝

Thus

I becomes 4I

unlike the threaded fasteners which are used to clamp the machine members, power screws are used to transmit power. common applications of power screws are: screw jacks: to lift weight. lead screw of lathe: for axial movement of tool and its precise positioning.
