(a) The charge that passes through any cross section is the product of the current and
time. Since t = 4.0 min = (4.0 min)(60 s/min) = 240 s,
(b) The number of electrons N is given by q = Ne, where e is the magnitude of the charge
on an electron. Thus,
where r is the radius of the sphere. This means ∆q = 4 πε 0r ∆V . Now, ∆q = (iin – iout) ∆t,
where iin is the current entering the sphere and iout is the current leaving. Thus,

= 5.6 × 10−3 s.
3. We adapt the discussion in the text to a moving two-dimensional collection of charges.
Using σ for the charge per unit area and w for the belt width, we can see that the transport
of charge is expressed in the relationship i = σvw, which leads to

The diameter of the wire is therefore d = 2r = 2(1.9 × 10–4 m) = 3.8 × 10–4 m.
6. We express the magnitude of the current density vector in SI units by converting the
diameter values in mils to inches (by dividing by 1000) and then converting to meters (by
multiplying by 0.0254) and finally using

For example, the gauge 14 wire with D = 64 mil = 0.0016 m is found to have a
(maximum safe) current density of J = 7.2 × 106 A/m2. In fact, this is the wire with the
largest value of J allowed by the given data. The values of J in SI units are plotted below
as a function of their diameters in mils.
7. (a) The magnitude of the current density is given by J = nqvd, where n is the number of
particles per unit volume, q is the charge on each particle, and vd is the drift speed of the
particles. The particle concentration is n = 2.0 × 108/cm3 = 2.0 × 1014 m–3, the charge is
c hc hc
J = 2 × 1014 / m 3.2 × 10−19 C 10 h
. × 105 m / s = 6.4 A / m2 .
(b) Since the particles are positively charged the current density is in the same direction
as their motion, to the north.
(c) The current cannot be calculated unless the cross-sectional area of the beam is known.
Then i = JA can be used.
8. (a) Circular area depends, of course, on r2, so the horizontal axis of the graph in Fig.
26-24(b) is effectively the same as the area (enclosed at variable radius values), except
for a factor of π. The fact that the current increases linearly in the graph means that i/A =
J = constant. Thus, the answer is “yes, the current density is uniform.”
(b) We find i/(πr2) = (0.005 A)/(π × 4 × 10−6 m2) = 398 ≈ 4.0 × 102 A/m2.
9. We use vd = J/ne = i/Ane. Thus,

(b) Although the total surface area of Earth is 4 πRE2 (that of a sphere), the area to be used
in a computation of how many protons in an approximately unidirectional beam (the solar
wind) will be captured by Earth is its projected area. In other words, for the beam, the
encounter is with a “target” of circular area πRE2 . The rate of charge transport implied by
the influx of protons is

11. We note that the radial width ∆r = 10 µm is small enough (compared to r = 1.20 mm)
that we can make the approximation
∫ Br 2π rdr ≈ Br 2π r ∆r
Thus, the enclosed current is 2πBr2∆r = 18.1 µA. Performing the integral gives the same
answer.

(c) The result is different from that in part (a) because Jb is higher near the center of the
cylinder (where the area is smaller for the same radial interval) and lower outward,
resulting in a lower average current density over the cross section and consequently a
lower current than that in part (a). So, Ja has its maximum value near the surface of the
wire.
14. We use R/L = ρ/A = 0.150 Ω/km.
(a) For copper J = i/A = (60.0 A)(0.150 Ω/km)/(1.69 × 10–8 Ω·m) = 5.32 × 105 A/m2.
(m/L)c = (ρmA)c = (8960 kg/m3) (1.69 × 10–8 Ω· m)/(0.150 Ω/km) = 1.01 kg/m.
(c) For aluminum J = (60.0 A)(0.150 Ω/km)/(2.75 × 10–8 Ω·m) = 3.27 × 105 A/m2.

19. The resistance of the coil is given by R = ρL/A, where L is the length of the wire, ρ is
the resistivity of copper, and A is the cross-sectional area of the wire. Since each turn of

20. Since the potential difference V and current i are related by V = iR, where R is the
resistance of the electrician, the fatal voltage is V = (50 × 10–3 A)(2000 Ω) = 100 V.
21. Since the mass density of the material do not change, the volume remains the same. If
L0 is the original length, L is the new length, A0 is the original cross-sectional area, and A
is the new cross-sectional area, then L0A0 = LA and A = L0A0/L = L0A0/3L0 = A0/3. The

24. The cross-sectional area is A = πr2 = π(0.002 m)2. The resistivity from Table 26-1 is
ρ = 1.69 × 10−8 Ω·m. Thus, with L = 3 m, Ohm’s Law leads to V = iR = iρL/A, or

Since a change in Celsius is equivalent to a change on the Kelvin temperature scale, the

Therefore, in 3.00 ms, the amount of charge drifting through a cross section is

J2 = A = σ2 E2 = σ2 (4.0 × 103 V/m)

J3 = A = σ3 E3 = σ3 (1.0 × 103 V/m) .
We note that the current densities are the same since the values of i and A are the same
(see the problem statement) in the three sections, so J1 = J2 = J3 .
(a) Thus we see that σ1 = 2σ3 = 2 (3.00 × 107(Ω·m)−1 ) = 6.00 × 107 (Ω·m)−1.

31. (a) The current in the block is i = V/R = 35.8 V/935 Ω = 3.83 × 10–2 A.
(c) vd = J/ne = (109 A/m2)/[(5.33 × 1022/m3) (1.60 × 10–19 C)] = 1.28 × 10–2 m/s.
(b) The potential difference is V = iR = (6.00 × 10–3 A) (2.65 × 10–6 Ω) = 1.59 × 10–8 V.
Since the current spreads uniformly over the hemisphere, the current density at any given
radius r from the striking point is J = I / 2π r 2 . From Eq. 26-10, the magnitude of the
electric field at a radial distance r is

identical to that shown in the figure for i (our +x direction). Using Eq. 26-11, we then
find an expression for the electric field at each value of x, and next find the potential

Chapter 25. Finally, the resistance of the cone is given by R = V/i. Thus,

where we must deduce how r depends on x in order to proceed. We note that the radius
increases linearly with x, so (with c1 and c2 to be determined later) we may write
r = c1 + c2 x.
Choosing the origin at the left end of the truncated cone, the coefficient c1 is chosen so
that r = a (when x = 0); therefore, c1 = a. Also, the coefficient c2 must be chosen so that
(at the right end of the truncated cone) we have r = b (when x = L); therefore,
c2 = (b − a) / L . Our expression, then, becomes

36. The number density of conduction electrons in copper is n = 8.49 × 1028 /m3. The
electric field in section 2 is (10.0 µV)/(2.00 m) = 5.00 µV/m. Since ρ = 1.69 × 10−8 Ω·m
for copper (see Table 26-1) then Eq. 26-10 leads to a current density vector of magnitude
J2 = (5.00 µV/m)/(1.69 × 10−8 Ω·m) = 296 A/m2 in section 2. Conservation of electric
current from section 1 into section 2 implies
J1 A1 = J 2 A2 ⇒ J1 (4π R 2 ) = J 2 (π R 2 )
(see Eq. 26-5). This leads to J1 = 74 A/m2. Now, for the drift speed of conduction-
electrons in section 1, Eq. 26-7 immediately yields

37. From Eq. 26-25, ρ ∝ τ–1 ∝ veff. The connection with veff is indicated in part (b) of
Sample Problem 26-6, which contains useful insight regarding the problem we are
working now. According to Chapter 20, veff ∝ T . Thus, we may conclude that ρ ∝ T .

(b) Eq. 24-6 immediately gives 12 eV, or (using e = 1.60 × 10−19 C) 1.9 × 10−18 J for the
work done by the field (which equals, in magnitude, the potential energy change of the
electron).
(c) Since the electrons don’t (on average) gain kinetic energy as a result of this work done,
it is generally dissipated as heat. The answer is as in part (b): 12 eV or 1.9 × 10−18 J.

(b) Using L = 4.0 m, the resistance is found from Eq. 26-16: R = ρL/A = 0.0338 Ω. The

Assuming a steady rate, the thermal energy generated in 30 minutes is (0.135 J/s)(30 ×

(b) Now let N be the number of particles in a length L of the beam. They will all pass

The current is the charge that moves through the cross section per unit time. That is,
i = 2eN/t = 2eNv/L.

56. (a) Current is the transport of charge; here it is being transported “in bulk” due to the
volume rate of flow of the powder. From Chapter 14, we recall that the volume rate of
flow is the product of the cross-sectional area (of the stream) and the (average) stream
velocity. Thus, i = ρAv where ρ is the charge per unit volume. If the cross-section is that
of a circle, then i = ρπR2v.

(c) The motion of charge is not in the same direction as the potential difference computed
in problem 68 of Chapter 24. It Gmight be useful to think of (by analogy)
G G Eq. 7-48; there,
G
the scalar (dot) product in P = F ⋅ v makes it clear that P = 0 if F⊥v . This suggests that
a radial potential difference and an axial flow of charge will not together produce the
needed transfer of energy (into the form of a spark).
(d) With the assumption that there is (at least) a voltage equal to that computed in
problem 68 of Chapter 24, in the proper direction to enable the transference of energy
(into a spark), then we use our result from that problem in Eq. 26-26:

(e) Recalling that a Joule per second is a Watt, we obtain (1.3 W)(0.20 s) = 0.27 J for the
energy that can be transferred at the exit of the pipe.
(f) This result is greater than the 0.15 J needed for a spark, so we conclude that the spark
was likely to have occurred at the exit of the pipe, going into the silo.
57. (a) We use P = V 2/R ∝ V 2, which gives ∆P ∝ ∆V 2 ≈ 2V ∆V. The percentage change
is roughly
∆P/P = 2∆V/V = 2(110 – 115)/115 = –8.6%.
(b) A drop in V causes a drop in P, which in turn lowers the temperature of the resistor in
the coil. At a lower temperature R is also decreased. Since P ∝ R–1 a decrease in R will
result in an increase in P, which partially offsets the decrease in P due to the drop in V.
Thus, the actual drop in P will be smaller when the temperature dependency of the
resistance is taken into consideration.

65. We find the current from Eq. 26-26: i = P/V = 2.00 A. Then, from Eq. 26-1 (with
constant current), we obtain
∆q = i∆t = 2.88 × 104 C .

P= = = 20.3 W
R 400 Ω
Assuming a steady rate, the energy consumed is (20.3 J/s)(2.00 × 3600 s) = 1.46 × 105 J.
68. We use Eq. 26-28:
V 2 (200 V) 2
R= = = 13.3 Ω .

69. The rate at which heat is being supplied is P = iV = (5.2 A)(12 V) = 62.4 W.
Considered on a one-second time-frame, this means 62.4 J of heat are absorbed the liquid
each second. Using Eq. 18-16, we find the heat of transformation to be

70. (a) The current is 4.2 × 1018 e divided by 1 second. Using e = 1.60 × 10−19 C we
obtain 0.67 A for the current.
(b) Since the electric field points away from the positive terminal (high potential) and
towards the negative terminal (low potential), then the current density vector (by Eq. 26-
11) must also point towards the negative terminal.
71. Combining Eq. 26-28 with Eq. 26-16 demonstrates that the power is inversely
proportional to the length (when the voltage is held constant, as in this case). Thus, a
new length equal to 7/8 of its original value leads to

P = 7 (2.0 kW) = 2.4 kW .

75. (a) In Eq. 26-17, we let ρ = 2ρ0 where ρ0 is the resistivity at T0 = 20°C:

(b) Since a change in Celsius is equivalent to a change on the Kelvin temperature scale,
the value of α used in this calculation is not inconsistent with the other units involved. It
is worth noting that this agrees well with Fig. 26-10.
