Question: A metal wire of specific resistance $ 64\times {{10}^{-6}}ohm-cm $ and length 198 cm has a resistance of 7 ohm, the radius of the wire will be

[MP PET 1994]

Options:

A) 2.4 cm

B) 0.24 cm

C) 0.024 cm

D) 24 cm

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

$ R=\rho \frac{l}{A}\Rightarrow 7=\frac{64\times {{10}^{-6}}\times 198}{\frac{22}{7}\times r^{2}} $

Therefore $ r=0.024cm $
