PROBLEM I:

A SAMPLE OF COPPER WIRE HAS A RESISTANCE OF 50 Ω AT 10° C.

WHAT MUST BE THE MAXIMUM OPERATING TEMPERATUREOF THE WIRE IF ITS
RESISTANCE IS TO INCREASE BY AT MOST 10 PERCENT? TAKE THE TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT AT 10° TO BE а = 0.00
GIVEN:

R1 @ 10° R2 @ 10% Increased Temperature coefficient at 10° C

50 55 0.00409

ANSWER:
MAXIMUM OPERATING TEMPERATURE OF THE WIRE
34.4498777506
