A wire of resistance `5Omega` is drawn out so that its length is increased by twice its original length. Calculate its new resistance.
Text Solution
AI Generated Solution
To solve the problem of finding the new resistance of a wire after it has been drawn to twice its original length, we can follow these steps:
### Step 1: Understand the relationship between resistance, length, and area
The resistance \( R \) of a wire is given by the formula:
\[
R = \frac{\rho L}{A}
\]
where:
