    When a uniform wire of resistance R is stretched uniformly to increase its length by 10%, the new resistance value would

    A)  remain as R                       

    B)  become 1.21 R

    C)  become 1.10 R                

    D)  become 1.20 R

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     Volume remains constant. \[\therefore \]  \[{{A}_{1}}{{l}_{1}}={{A}_{2}}{{l}_{2}}\]                 \[{{A}_{1}}l={{A}_{2}}(1.1l)\]                 \[{{A}_{1}}={{A}_{2}}(1.1)\]                 \[{{R}_{1}}=\frac{\rho {{l}_{1}}}{{{A}_{1}}}\] Similarly,   \[{{R}_{2}}=\frac{\rho {{l}_{2}}}{{{A}_{2}}}\]                 \[\frac{{{R}_{1}}}{{{R}_{2}}}=\frac{\rho \frac{{{l}_{1}}}{{{A}_{1}}}}{\rho \frac{{{l}_{2}}}{{{A}_{2}}}}\]                 \[=\frac{{{l}_{1}}}{{{A}_{1}}}\times \frac{{{A}_{2}}}{{{l}_{2}}}\]                 \[=\frac{l}{(1.1){{A}_{2}}}\times \frac{{{A}_{2}}}{(1.1)l}\]                 \[\frac{{{R}_{1}}}{{{R}_{2}}}=\frac{1}{1.21}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{R}_{2}}=1.21{{R}_{1}}\]
