A silver wire has a resistance of `2.1 Omega` at `27.5^@C`, and a resistance of `2.7 Omega` at `100^@C`, Determine the temperature coefficient of resistivity of silver.

Explanation

To determine the temperature coefficient of resistivity (α) of silver, we can use the formula that relates resistance and temperature:

\[ R_T = R_0 (1 + \alpha (T - T_0)) \]

Where:
- \( R_T \) is the resistance at temperature \( T \)
- \( R_0 \) is the resistance at a reference temperature \( T_0 \)
- \( \alpha \) is the temperature coefficient of resistivity
