    While determining the specific resistance of a wire using a metre bridge the formula used is (where X, D, L and p denote unknown resistance, diameter of the wire, the length of the wire and the specific resistance of the wire)

    A)   \[\rho =\frac{X\pi D}{4L}\]             

    B)  \[\rho =\frac{X\pi {{D}^{2}}}{4L}\]

    C)  \[\rho =\frac{{{X}^{2}}\pi {{D}^{2}}}{4L}\]              

    D)  \[\rho =\frac{X\pi {{D}^{2}}}{4{{L}^{\,2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     The specific resistance \[\text{( }\!\!\rho\!\!\text{ )}\]is determined by the formula \[\text{ }\!\!\rho\!\!\text{ =}\frac{X\pi {{D}^{2}}}{4L}\]where symbols have their usual meaning.
