Choose true or false for each statement regarding the resistance of a wire.
1. The resistivity depends on the temperature of most metal wires.
2. While maintaining a constant voltage V, the current I increases when the length L of a wire decreases.
3. While maintaining a constant voltage V, the current I increases when the resistivity rho of a wire increases.

Copper has free electrons per cubic meter. a 71.0-cm length of 12-gauge copper wire that is 2.05 mm in diameter carries 4.85 a of current. (a) how much time does it take for an electron to travel the length of the wire? (b) repeat part (a) for 6-gauge copper wire (diameter 4.12 mm) of the same length that carries the same current. (c) generally speaking, how does changing the diameter of a wire that carries a given amount of current affect the drift velocity of the electrons in the wire?

How is coal extracted from mountaintop removal mines? a. dynamite is used to create underground tunnels where miners go to extract the coal. b. dynamite is used to break apart rocks and then draglines are used to remove the broken rock and reach the coal. c. coal in mountaintops is extracted by digging strips in the landscape to reach the coal. d. placer deposits in mountain river bottoms are removed by
