Solution

To determine the rate at which thermal energy is produced, we need to use the formula for power, which is P = I^2 * R, where I is the current and R is the resistance.

First, we need to calculate the resistance of the wire. The resistance of a wire can be calculated using the formula R = ρ * (L/A), where ρ is the resistivity, L is the length of the wire, and A is the cross-sectional area of the wire.

The length of the wire can be calculated by multiplying the circumference of the coil by the number of turns. The circumference of a circle is given by the formula C = π * D, where D is the diameter. So, the length of the wire is L = π * D * N = π * 0.21 m * 50 = 33.0 m.

The cross-sectional area of the wire can be calculated using the formula A = π * (d/2)^2, where d is the diameter of the wire. So, the cross-sectional area is A = π * (0.002 m / 2)^2 = 3.14 * 10^-6 m^2.

Now we can calculate the resistance: R = ρ * (L/A) = 1.68 * 10^-8 Ω*m * (33.0 m / 3.14 * 10^-6 m^2) = 0.177 Ω.

Finally, we can calculate the power: P = I^2 * R = (0.091 A)^2 * 0.177 Ω = 0.00147 W or 1.47 mW. This is the rate at which thermal energy is produced.
