A electric current passes through non uniform cross-section wire made of homogeneous and isotropic meterial. If the `j_(A)` and `J_(B)` be the current densities and `E_(A)` and `E_(B)` be the electric field intensities at `A` and `B` respectively, then

A

`j_(a) gt j_(B) , E_(A) gt E_(B)`

B

`j_(a) gt j_(B) , E_(A) lt E_(B)`

C

`j_(a) lt j_(B) , E_(A) gt E_(B)`

D

`j_(a) lt j_(B) , E_(A) lt E_(B)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

(a) `(I)/(A) gt J_(B)` and `j = (E)/(rho)`
`:. J_(A) gt j_(B)` and `E_(A) gt E_(B)`.
