A negligibly small current is passed through a wire of length 15 m and uniform cross-section `6.0 xx 10^(-7)Omega m^(2)`, and its resistance is measured to be `5.0 Omega`. What is the resistivity of the material at the temperature of the experiment ?

Answer» Here, `l = 15 m , A = 6.0 xx 10^(-7) m^(2) , R = 5.0 Omega , rho = ?`
`rho = (RA)/(l) = (5.0 xx 6 xx 10^(-7))/15 = 2.0 xx 10^(-7) Omega m`
