A wire of resistivity 4.40 x 10-5(\Omega) cm has a cross sectional area of 7.50 x 10-4 cm2. Calculate the length of the wire that will be required to make a 4.0(\Omega) resistor

A
82.50 cm
B
68.18cm
C
15.90cm
D
11.95cm

Correct Option: B

L = (\frac{R.A}{e} = \frac{4 \times 7.50 \times 106{-4}}{4.40 \times 10^{-5}} = 68.18cm)
