The electric motor

The electric motor winding's copper wire (alpha=4*10-3 K-1) has a resistance of 42 ohms at a temperature of 18 degrees. What is its resistance at an operating temperature of 50 degrees?

Correct answer:

R2 =  47.376 Ω

Step-by-step explanation:

α=4 103=0.004 1/K t1=18 °C R1=42 Ω t2=50 °C  Δ=t2t1=5018=32 °C  R2=R1 (1+α Δ)=42 (1+0.004 32)=47.376 Ω
