The resistance of a wire of length 40 m and radius o.25 mm is `10 Omega`. The conductivity of the material of the wire is

A

`1xx10^( -7)` mho/m

B

`2xx10^(-7)` mho/m

C

`2xx10^(7)` mho/m

D

`1xx10^(-7)` mho/m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`sigma = 1/rho=(l)/(RA)=(40)/(10xx3.14xx625xx10^(-10))`
`=2xx10^(7)` mho/m
