The resistance of a wire of length 10 m is 2 ohm. If the area of cross section of the wire is 2xx10^(-7)m^(2), determine its (i) resistivity (ii) conductance and (iii) conductivity

Answer»

Solution :Given : LENGTH, `L=10`m, Resistance, `R=2`
ohm and Area, `A=2xx10^(-7)m^(2)`
Resistivity `rho=(RA)/(L)=(2xx2xx10^(-7))/(10)`
`=4xx10^(-8)OMEGAM`
Conductance, `G=(1)/(R )=(1)/(2)=0.5` mho
Conductivity, `SIGMA=(1)/(rho)=(1)/(4xx10^(-8))`
`=0.25xx10^(-8)"mho m"^(-1)`
