The temperature coefficient of resistan...

The temperature coefficient of resistance of conductor varies as `alpha(T) = 3T^2 +2T.` If `R_0` is resistance at T = 0and R is resistance at T, then

A

`R = R_0(6T - 2)`

B

`R = 2R_0(3 +2T0`

C

`R = R_0(1 + T^2 +T^2)`

D

`R = R-0(1 - T + T^2 T^3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

In the steady state no current flow through C.

`15 = 3xx2I//3 +3I +3I or I 3A`
`V_(A)- 3I//3 -3I = V_(B)`
or `V_(A) - V_(B) = 4I = 4xx3 = 12 V`
