Resistors - Current and Wire
Not what you're looking for?
Two uniform wires having circular cross-sections, both with the same length and made of identical material, are both maintained at the same potential difference and the same temperature. The first wire has a diameter of 2.2 mm and the second has a diameter of 4 mm. If the current in the first wire is 1.1 amps, then what is the current in the second wire?

- "Your solution, looks excellent. I recognize things from previous chapters. I have seen the standard deviation formula you used to get 5.154. I do understand the Central Limit Theorem needs the sample size (n) to be greater than 30, we have 100. I do understand the sample mean(s) of the population will follow a normal distribution, and that CLT states the sample mean of population is the population (mean), we have 143.74. But when and WHY do we use the standard deviation formula where you got 5.154. WHEN & Why use standard deviation of the sample mean. I don't understand, why don't we simply use the "100" I understand that standard deviation is the square root of variance. I do understand that the variance is the square of the differences of each sample data value minus the mean. But somehow, why not use 100, why use standard deviation of sample mean? Please help explain."
