When a wire of uniform cross-section a , length l and resistance R is bent into a complete circle, resistance between two of diametrically opposite points will be

A

depaends on height of breaking

B

does not shift

C

body C

D

body B

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

In order to shift centre of mass, the system must experience an external force, as there is no external force responsible for explosion, hence centre of mass does not shift.
