Question Number 99900 by Rio Michael last updated on 23/Jun/20

An insulated wire of diameter 1.22 mm carries a steady current  of 5.4 A. The insulation material is 1.22 mm thick and has a?  coeffiecient of thermal conductivity of 0.23 W/Km. the electrical  resistivity of the material of the wire is 5.2 ×10^(−7) Ωm. find the   temperature difference between the inner and outer surface of   the insulated material when steady state is reached.
