Finding resistance between two conductors
For my electromagnetic-field class we are asked to calculate resistance between two electrodes shown as below.
The part c(i) is just a simple resistance question using the formula R=pl/a.
I don't ...

Electric field in a circuit and potential drop
With reference to the above image:
Here the battery produces a constant (will it be constant? pl. explain) electric field across the length of the wire, lets say its value is \$\vec E\$ . This field ...

Is the electric field in a wire constant?
If \$V=I\cdot R\$ according to Ohm's Law, that implies that \$\frac{\mathrm dV}{ \mathrm dx} = \frac{I \rho}A\$ across an infinitesimal length of conductor, which is constant at all points along the ...
