Question Number 99744 by Rio Michael last updated on 23/Jun/20
A wire that is highly insulated has a radius of 2.1 mm and a current  of 6 Agoes through it. The material used in insulation has thickness  of 2.1 mm with a thermal conductivity of 0.2 W/Km. the material used  in constructing the wire has a resistivity of 4.2 × 10^(−7) Ωm. assume the   the materials reach steady state. Find the difference in temperature  between the outer suface and inner surface.
