Two copper wires of the same length have got different diameters a. which wire has greater resistance? b. greater specific resistance? |
|
Answer» a. For a given wire, `R=rho l/A`, i. e. `Rprop1/A` So the thinner wire will have greater resistance b.Specific resistance (`rho`) is a material property. It does not depend of `l` or `A`. So, both the wire will have same specific resistance. |
