11 Example (a)the current density in a cylindrical wire of radius R = 2.0 mm is uniform across a cross section of the wire and J = A/m 2. What is the current through the outer portion of the wire between radial distance R/2 and R? (b) Suppose, instead, that the current density through a cross section varies with radial r as J = ar 2, in which a = A/m 4, and r is in meter. What now is the current through the same outer portion of the wire? 11

19 Why does the light in a room come on instantly when you flip a switch several meters away? A. Electrons travel at the speed of light through the wire. B. Because the wire between the switch and the bulb is already full of electrons, a flow of electrons from the switch into the wire immediately causes electrons to flow from the other end of the wire into the lightbulb. C. The switch sends a radio signal which is received by a receiver in the light which tells it to turn on. D. Optical fibers connect the switch with the light, so the signal travels from switch to the light at the speed of light in an optical fiber.
