A negligibly small current is passed through a wire of length 15 m and uniform cross-section `6.0 xx 10^(-7)Omega m^(2)`, and its resistance is measured to be `5.0 Omega`. What is the resistivity of the material at the temperature of the experiment ?
Text Solution
AI Generated Solution
To find the resistivity of the material at the temperature of the experiment, we can use the formula for resistance:
\[ R = \frac{\rho L}{A} \]
Where:
- \( R \) is the resistance,
- \( \rho \) is the resistivity,
- \( L \) is the length of the wire,
