Resistance in metals increases with increasing temperature according to the equation, ρ(T) = ρo(1 + α(T - To)) where α is the temperature coefficient of resistivity and ρo is the resistivity at temperature To. For a particular wire α = 1.5 × 10-3 1/°C and the resistivity is ρo = 8.5 × 10-7 Ω⋅m at To = 125 °C.
The temperature coefficient of resistance α in equation R(T)=R0[1+α(T−T0)] equals the temperature coefficient of resistivity α in equation ρ(T)=ρ0[1+α(T−T0)] only if the coefficient of thermal expansion is small. A cylindrical column of mercury is in a vertical glass tube. At 20 ∘C, the length of the mercury column is 12.0 cm. The diameter of the mercury column is 1.6 mm and doesn't change with temperature because glass has a small coefficient of thermal expansion. The coefficient of volume expansion of...
Learning Goal: Examine the dependence of resistivity and resistance of a wire on temperature and how it affects the potential difference across the terminals of the wire. Introduction: A current of 65 milli-amperes (mA) flows through a wire of length L= 1.7 meters long and diameter of d= 1.15 millimeters at a temperature of T0= 20 °C; the wire's resistivity at this temperature is ρ0= 5.33×10−8 Ω ∙ m. The temperature coefficient of resistivity of the material is α= 4.6×10−3/C°....
Tungsten has a temperature coefficient of resistivity of 0.0045 (C°)-1. A tungsten wire is connected to a source of constant voltage via a switch. At the instant the switch is closed, the temperature of the wire is 28 °C, and the initial power delivered to the wire is P0.
