A carbon resistor is to be used as a thermometer. On a winter day when the temperature is 4.00 ∘C, the resistance of the carbon resistor is 217.0 Ω . What is the temperature on a spring day when the resistance is 215.1 Ω ? Take the temperature coefficient of resistivity for carbon to be α = −5.00×10−4 C−1 .

Along wire carrying a 4.2 a current perpendicular to the xy-plane intersects the x-axis at x=−1.7cm. a second, parallel wire carrying a 3.0 a current intersects the x-axis at x=+1.7cm. part a at what point on the x-axis is the magnetic field zero if the two currents are in the same direction? express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
