Wire sizes are often reported using the AWG (American Wire Gauge) system in which smaller diameter wires are said to be of higher gauge. Thus the thin 24-gauge wire included in many electronics kits has a wire diameter of 0.51 mm, while a thicker 12-gauge wire used for many home audio speakers has a wire diameter of 2.05 mm. Different gauge wires have different maximum current ratings, with thicker wires being capable of safely handling larger current.

A. Consider a meter of 24-gauge copper wire. Calculate the resistance of this wire.

B. Imagine that this 1-meter length of 24-gauge copper wire were laid across the terminals of an ideal 12-volt battery. Calculate the current that would run through the wire.

C. The maximum safe current rating for 24-gauge copper wire is 2.0 Amps. What is the shortest length of this wire that could be safely placed across the ideal 12-volt battery?

Air initially at 0.75 bar, 1000 k, and occupying a volume of 0.12 m^3 undergoes two processes. process 1-2: the air is compressed isothermally until the volume is halved. process 2-3: the air undergoes a constant pressure process until the volume is halved again. assume ideal gas behavior. a) determine the mass of the air, in kg. b) the work and the heat transfer for each of the two processes, in kj. (100 kj = 1 bar . m^3)
