Masses of 3 wires of same metal are in the ratio 1 : 2 : 3 and their lengths are in the ratio 3 : 2 : 1. The electrical resistances are in ratio

A

`1:1:1`

B

`1:2:3`

C

`9:4:1`

D

`27: 6:1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
4

`rho` is same so `Rprop(l)/(A)`
Now m d `rArr m=Ald`
`Aprop(m)/(l) rArrR prop(l^(2))/(m)`
`R_(1):R_(2):R_(3)=(9)/(1):(4)/(2):(1)/(3)=27:6:1`
