(1) The region between two hemispheric and concentric shells of radiuses ‘a’ and ‘b’ (with a < b) is filled with a material of conductivity So.  Determine the resistance to the electric current between both shells, (a) When the inner shell is connected to the positive terminal of a battery of voltage V_o , while the outer shell is connected to its negative terminal. (b) When the connection is the opposite way.

Solution.-

(2) A wire segment has an electrical resistance R. Determine what happens with its resistance, when the wire is stretched until twice its length.

Solution.-

If the wire is stretched up to the double of its length, the wire becomes thinner and its transversal area reduces to half its original area.

Original resistance of the wire:

(3)     Determine the electric field, the current, the current density, and the resistance   for the case of two concentric spherical shells of radiuses  ´a´  and  ´b´   ( a < b)  whose interior is filled with a conductive material of resistivity rho.    It is known that the current flows from the inner to the outer sphere and that the electrical potential between these spheres is V.

Solution.-

(4) A coaxial cable having a nucleus of radius ‘a’ and hull of radius ‘b’,  has insulation of resistivity rho between nucleus and hull. The length of the cable is L and the electric current radially flowing is ‘i’ .  Determine: (a) The density of the radial electric current (b) The radial electric field (c) Potential difference between nucleus and hull (d) Resistance to the current that flows radially.  

Solution.- 

The electric current flowing from nucleus to hull travels a radial distance r and traverses the area of a cylinder of radius r and length L.
