Answer:
i = 1.09 10⁴ A
Explanation:
For this exercise we will look for the resistance of the wire
R = ρ L / a
the area of the wire is
a =ππ r² = π πd² / 4
we substitute
R = ρ L 4 / π d²
R = 1.72 10⁻⁸ 20 4/π 8 10⁻⁴
R = 5.47 10⁻⁴ Ω
to calculate the current we use ohm's law
V = R i
i = V / R
i = 6 / 5.47 10⁻⁴
i = 1.09 10⁴ A
