$A$ cylindrical resistor of radius $7.0 \, mm$ and length $4.0 \, cm$ is made of a material that has a resistivity of $10^{-6} \, \Omega \cdot m$. If the energy is dissipated at a rate of $1.54 \, W$ in the resistor, then the current density is:

  • A
    $\frac{10^6}{\sqrt{\pi}} \, A/m^2$
  • B
    $5 \times 10^5 \, A/m^2$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\pi} \times 10^5 \, A/m^2$
  • D
    $8.5 \times 10^4 \, A/m^2$
