Question

Resistance of a wire is 8 ohms. It is drawn in such away that it experiences a longitudinal strain of 400%. The new resistance is?

Answer 1

Answer:

R = 2 ohm

L’ = 200 %

L’ = L + (200/100)L

L’ = L + 2L = 3L

(L’/L) = 3

Vol. remains same,

A’L’ = AL

(A’/A) = (L/L’) => 1/3

A’ = A/3

R’ = p(L’/A’) = p(3L)3/A = [pL/A] 9 = R9 = 9R = 9 * 2 = 18 ohm
