| Maverick has been sufficiently convinced that the warning light cannot possibly take too long. Good job! In the meantime, his inspection of the wires has revealed a slight inconsistency in the circuit. It appears that half of the wiring is made from a 12-gauge copper wire and half is made from an 18-gauge copper wire. Maverick is worried about the affect this will have on the circuit. He has asked your team to report the effects of the different sized wires on the electric field, the surface charges, and the current in the wires. | Maverick has been sufficiently convinced that the warning light cannot possibly take too long.
