प्रश्न
A wire of resistance 3 ohm and length 10 cm is stretched to length 30 cm. Assuming that it has a uniform cross section, what will be its new resistance?

उत्तर
Because three times the original length of the wire 10 cm is stretched to 30 cm
∴ Resistance becomes 9 times its resistance, i.e. 3 × 9 = 27 Ω
`"R"_1 = ρ 30/(a/3)`
= `9 [ρ 10/a]` ...(i)
`"R"_2 = ρ 10/a` put in (i)
R1 = 9R
= 9 × 3
= 27 Ω
∴ R = 3 Ω
