    We have two wires A and B of the same mass and the same material. The diameter of the wire A is half of that B. If the resistance of wire A is 24 ohm then the resistance of wire B will be

    A)  12 ohm      

    B)  3.0 ohm

    C)  1.5 ohm      

    D)  None of the above

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Same mass, same material i.e., volume is the same of Al = constant Also, \[R=\rho \frac{l}{A}\Rightarrow \frac{{{R}_{1}}}{{{R}_{2}}}=\frac{{{l}_{1}}}{{{l}_{2}}}\times \frac{{{A}_{2}}}{{{A}_{1}}}={{\left( \frac{{{A}_{2}}}{{{A}_{1}}} \right)}^{2}}{{\left( \frac{{{d}_{2}}}{{{d}_{1}}} \right)}^{4}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{24}{{{R}_{2}}}={{\left( \frac{d}{d/2} \right)}^{4}}=16\Rightarrow {{R}_{1}}=1.5\,\Omega \]
