When an electrical device has a short circuit, a fault in the circuit allows current to flow with almost no resistance. The dangerously large current in a short circuit creates significant shock and fire hazards. Suppose a short circuit occurs when the terminals of a 6.0 V battery are connected by 8.8 cm of AWG 12 gauge wire with a resistance of 5.2 Ω per 1000 m of length. 12 gauge wire can safely carry a maximum current I max = 25 A. To two significant figures, what is the short circuit current I short in terms of I max ?

Ahorizontal wire is tied to supports at each end and vibrates in its second-overtone standing wave. the tension in the wire is 5.00 n, and the node-to-node distance in the standing wave is 6.28 cm. (a) what is the length of the wire? (b) a point at an anti- node of the standing wave on the wire travels from its maximum upward displacement to its maximum downward displacement in 8.40 ms. what is the wire's mass?
