The resistance of a cylindrical conductor is :

  1. A inversely proportional to its length
  2. B directly proportional to the square of the radius
  3. C inversely proportional to the square of the radius
  4. D directly proportional to the square root of its length
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) inversely proportional to the square of the radius

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( R = \rho \frac{L}{A} \) \( R = \rho \frac{L}{\pi r^2} \) Resistance is inversely proportional to the square of the radius.
