Consider a thin square sheet of side L and thickness t, made of a material of resistivity `rho`. The resistance between two opposite faces, shown by the shaded areas in the figure is

A

directly proportional to L

B

directly proportional to t

C

independent of L

D

independent of t

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`R = (rho(L))/(A)=(rho L)/(tL)=(rho)/(t)`
i.e., R is independent of L
Hence, the correct option is (c ).
