Find radiation resistance of a wire...
Find radiation resistance of a wire joining the two ends of a dipole.
P=I2R
Ok so to solve this problem I need to set the average power = to total power and solve for R
I thought P=I2R is the average power, but its not and not sure how to find it.
The solution first finds P=I2R =qo2w2sin2(wt) R than somehow from this they get (qo2w2R)/2
No idea how they got that, no other formula in the section seems to fit this.
