Calculate the resistance of a metal wire of length 2m and area of cross section 1.55*10to the power -6, if the resistivity of metal be 2.8*10to the power -8.

Answer»

ANSWER:

RESISTANCE ( R ) = 36 × 10-³ Ω ( ohms)

Explanation:

★ CURRENT ELECTRICITY

★ GIVEN ;

» Length of Wire ( L ) = 2 m

» Area of Cross - Section ( A ) = 1.55 × 10^-6 m²

» RESISTIVITY ( p ) = 2.8 × 10^-8

★ RESISTANCE ( R ) = ???

_________________________________________

———— [ BY USING FORMULA ] ————

[ r \:  =  \: p \:  ( \: \frac{l}{a}  \: ) ]

★ R = 2.8 × 10^-8 × [ 2 / 155 × 10^-8 ]

» R = 2.8 × 10^-8 × [ 2 × 10^8 / 155 ]

» R = [ 2.8 × 2 ] / 155

» R = [ 5.6 ] / 155

» R = 0.036 Ω

★ » RESISTANCE ( R ) = 36 × 10-³ Ω « ★
