    A resistor is constructed as hollow cylinder of dimensions \[{{r}_{a}}=0.5\,\,cm\] and \[{{r}_{b}}=1.0\,\,cm\] and\[\rho =3.5\times {{10}^{-5}}\Omega m\]. The resistance of the configuration for the length of \[5\,\,cm\] cylinder is \[...\times {{10}^{-3}}\Omega \]:

    A) \[7.43\]                               

    B) \[10.56\]

    C) \[14.38\]                             

    D) \[16.48\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    The resistance \[(R)\] of wire of length (and area\[A\]is                                 \[R=\rho \frac{1}{A}\] Given,\[l=5\,\,cm=5\times {{10}^{-2}}m,\,\,\rho =3.5\times {{10}^{-5}}\Omega \text{-}m\] \[A=\pi (r_{1}^{2}-r_{2}^{2})=\pi (1\times {{10}^{-4}}-0.25\times {{10}^{-4}})\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[A=0.75\pi \times {{10}^{-4}}m\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[A=7.5\pi \times {{10}^{-5}}m\] \[\therefore \]  \[R=\frac{3.5\times {{10}^{-5}}\times 5\times {{10}^{-2}}}{7.5\pi \times {{10}^{-5}}}\]                     \[=7.43\times {{10}^{-3}}\Omega \]
