A wire 1 0m long and with cross-sectional area ... - WAEC Physics 2008 Question
A wire 1.0m long and with cross-sectional area 2.0 x 10-7 m2 has a resistance of 0.1\(\Omega\). Calculate the electrical conductivity of the wire
A
2.0 x 107\(\Omega^{-1} m^{-1}\)
B
5.0 x 107\(\Omega^{-1} m^{-1}\)
C
2.0 x 108\(\Omega^{-1} m^{-1}\)
D
5.0 x 108\(\Omega^{-1} m^{-1}\)
correct option: b
K = \(\frac{1}{RA} = \frac{1}{0.1 \times 2 \times 10^{-7}} = 5 \times 10^7\)
