A uniform wire resistance `100(Omega)`is melted and recast in a wire of length double that of the original . What would be the resistance of the wire?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the resistance of the new wire after melting and recasting the original wire, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Volume Conservation When the wire is melted and recast, the volume of the wire remains constant. The volume \( V \) of a wire is given by the formula: \[ V = A \times L \] where \( A \) is the cross-sectional area and \( L \) is the length of the wire. ...
