Answer: B) Decrease in relaxation time

Explanation:

  • When we heat a conductor the electrons start gaining more energy and starts colliding with each other more frequently.
  • Due to which the relaxation time of the electrons decreases.
  • And the resistance of the metal wire increases with the increase in temperature.
  • Hence, the required answer is option B.
