The National Electrical Code specifies safe current-carrying capacities for various sizes and types of wire. These ratings depend upon the length (“run”) of wire being used. For typical household use #12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) PVC-coated copper wire is rated at a maximum safe current of 20 A. The diameter of #12 AWG wire is 0.081”. At a current of 20 A find (a) the current density, (b) the electrical field strength, and (c) the potential difference for 25’ and...

The figure gives the electric potential V(x) along a copper wire carrying uniform current, from a point of higher potential Vs = 11.0 μV at x = 0 to a point of zero potential at xs = 2.80 m. The wire has a radius of 2.30 mm, and copper has a resistivity of 1.69 × 10-8 Ω·m. What is the current in the wire?
