4. If 46 m of lead wire (23 × 10-8 Ω.m) is to have a diameter of 1.2 mm, what is the wire resistance at room
temperature?
A. 2.3 Ω
B. 9.4 Ω
C. 2.3 × 10-6 Ω
D. 9.4 × 10-6 Ω
E. 29 Ω
5. The drift velocity of the conduction electrons of gold is V at the current I and a wire with the diameter D. If the
current is doubled and the diameter is halved, what would the drift velocity now?
A. V
B. 4V
8. Why is an appliance cord with a three-prong plug safer than one with two prongs?
A. The 120 V from the outlet is split among three wires, so it isn’t as high a voltage as when it is only split
between two wires.
B. Three prongs fasten more securely to the wall outlet.
C. The third prong grounds the case, so the case cannot reach a high voltage.
D. The third prong acts as a ground wire, so the electrons have an easier time leaving the appliance. As a
result, fewer electrons build up in the appliance.
E. The third prong controls the capacitance of the appliance, so it can’t build up a high voltage.
9. A portable CD player does not have a power rating listed, but it has a label stating that it draws a maximum
current of 250.0 mA. The player uses three 1.50-V batteries connected in series. What is the maximum power
consumed?
A. 1.125 W
B. 0.375 W
C. 375 W
D. 1125
E. 167 W
10. Suppose a collection of five batteries is connected as shown.
