Figure a shows a rod of resistive material. The resistance per unit length of the rod increases in the positive direction of the x axis. At any position x along the rod, the resistance dR of a narrow-differential-section of width dx is given by dR = 5.00xdx, where dR is in ohms and x is in meters. Figure b shows such a narrow section. You are to slice off a length of the rod between x = 0 and some position x = L and then connect that length to a battery with potential difference V = 5.0 V (Fig. c). You want the current in the length to transfer energy to thermal energy at the rate of 3.2 W. At what position x = L in meters should you cut the rod? Keep 2 decimal points in your answer.

An advanced lab student is studying the effect of temperature on the resistance of a current carrying wire. She applies a voltage to a tungsten wire at a temperature of 52.0∘C and notes that it produces a current of 1.20 A. If she then applies the same voltage to the same wire at −88.0∘C, what current should she expect (in A)? The temperature coefficient of resistivity for tungsten is 4.50×10−3(∘C)−1. (Assume that the reference temperature is 20∘C.) A
