The external diameter of \(5 \mathrm{~m}\) long hollow tube is \(0.1 \mathrm{~m}\) and thickness of its wall is \(0.005 \mathrm{~m}\). If \(\rho=1.7 \times 10^{-8} \Omega-\mathrm{m}\), then its resistance will be

  1. A \(5.7 \times 10^{-5} \Omega\)
  2. B \(2.7 \times 10^{-5} \Omega\)
  3. C \(2 \times 10^{-5} \Omega\)
  4. D \(5 \times 10^{-5} \Omega\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(5.7 \times 10^{-5} \Omega\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, Iength, \(l=5 \mathrm{~m}\) External diameter, \(d_1=0.1 \mathrm{~m}\) \(\therefore\) External radius, \(r_1=\frac{d_1}{2}=\frac{0.1}{2}=0.05 \mathrm{~m}\) Thickness, \(t=0.005 \mathrm{~m}\) \(\therefore\) Internal radius, \(r_2=r_1-t\) \[ =0.05-0.005=0.045 \mathrm{~m} \]…
