What is the resistance of the cable

Reference no: EM13709197

Compute all parts of given problem:

Problem: An electrical cable consists of 167 strands of fine wire, each having 2.80 µohm resistances. The same potential difference is applied between the ends of all the strands and results in a total current of 0.792 A.

Part I: What is the current (in A) in each strand?

Part II: What is the applied potential difference?

Part III: What is the resistance of the cable?

I need help to determine the applied potential difference.
