Assertion (A) : The temperature dependence of resistance is usually given as: R = R0(1+αΔT).The resistance of a wire changes from 100Ω to 150Ω, when its temperature is increased form 27℃ to 227℃. This implies that α = 2.5 × 10−3℃−1.Reason(R) : R = R0(1+αΔT) is valid only when the change in temperature ΔT is small and ΔR = (R − R0 ) << R0.(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A (b) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A (c) A is true but R is false (d) A is false and R is also false

Answer»

Option : (C)

Given that, 

R –R0 = R0∝ ∆ 

150-100 = 100×∝× (227 − 27) 

\(\frac{50}{100}\) =∝× 200 

Or, ∝ = 2.5 × 10−3−1 

Therefore,

Assertion is true. 

Reason is false as R – R0 = 150 – 100

= 50Ω, 

Which is not much-much less than R0 (= 100Ω).
