A professor gives an undergraduate assistant a summer job organizing her lab. On the first day, the assistant comes across three identically shaped cylinders of metal, each having a diameter of 4.07 mm and a length of 7.87 cm. They appear to be made out of different metals, but they are not labeled. They are, however, packaged with a table of the conductivities of several metals. The assistant locates a multimeter and uses it to measure the electrical resistance of each cylinder. Using the measured resistances and the table of conductivities, identify the metal that each cylinder is composed of. Sample 1: R = 695 Sample 2: R2 = 96.0 Sample 3: R3 = 332 Metal (Q.m)-1 silver 6.30 107 copper 5.69 x 107 aluminum 3.50 107 tungsten 1.82 x 107 tin 8.70 x 106 titanium 1.80 106 Answer Bank tin copper titanium aluminum tungsten silver A professor gives an undergraduate assistant a summer job organizing her lab.
