Assume two copper rods A and B are connected to each other at one end. Lengths of the rods ar equal.
Radii of cross section of A and B are 2 mm and 4 mm respectively. If the current density in A is `9xx10^5 A//m^2` then calculate the current density in B.

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the current density in rod B (denoted as \( J_B \)) given the current density in rod A (\( J_A \)) and the dimensions of both rods. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understand the relationship between current densities and areas**: Since rods A and B are connected, the current flowing through both rods must be the same. Therefore, we can use the relationship: \[ I_A = I_B ...
