  7. What Is the Current in a Nichrome Tube Connected to a 4V Battery?

    www.physicsforums.com/threads/what-is-the-current-in-a-nichrome-tube-connected...

    A 60.0 cm long hollow nichrome tube of inner diameter 1.60mm , outer diameter 4.20mm is connected to a 4.00 V battery. The units for P is ohm m, and area should have been m^2. My bad! Oh and by the way the p value wasn't given in the problem, thought I should mention that. That's much clearer, thanks.

    To solve for the magnitude of the electric field in the copper wire, we can use the equation E = V/L, where V is the voltage and L is the length of the wire. In this case, the voltage is given as 1.5 V and the length of each copper wire is 18 cm. However, we still need to determine the voltage drop across the copper wire.

  9. Heating a Nichrome wire around a glass tube - Physics Forums
