Answer:
R= 4 ohm
Explanation:
for X,
R₁ = ρL₁/A₁
Given,
for the other wire L₂= 4L₁ ; A₂= 5A₁
R₂ = ρL₂/A₂
R₁/R₂ = (L₁/A₁) / (L₂/A₂)
R₁/R₂ = (L₁/A₁) / (4L₁/5A₁)
Multiply and divide L₁
R₁/R₂ = [L₁/(A₁ x L₁)] / [4L₁/(5A₁ x L₁)]
R₁/R₂ = (L₁/V) / (4L₁/5V)
5/R₂ = 5/4
R₂ = 4 ohm.

Explanation:
Given Resistance of conducting wire is x of length 1m of 5 ohm calculate resistance of a wire made by same material whose length is 4 times and area of cross section is 5 times that of wire x(at same temperature)
- Given resistance of wire x is 5 ohm
- Resistance of a wire of 4 times length and 5 times area of cross section as that of wire.
- We know that resistance = ρ l / a where l is length, a is area and ρ is resistivity
- Now for wire X, since the other wire is of same material, it has same resistivity.
- Let its resistance be R2
- R2 = ρ l2 / a2
- = ρ (4l / 5a)
- = 4/5 ρ (l/ a)
- = 4/5 x 5
- Or R2 = 4 ohms
