The variation of resistivity of a metallic conductor with temperature is given correctly by which of the following relations?
(Where \( \rho_T \) is the resistivity at a temperature T and \( \rho_0 \) is the resistivity at a reference temperature \( T_0 \), \( \alpha \) is the temperature coefficient of resistivity, \( T > T_0 \))
- A \( \rho_T = \rho_0 [1 + \alpha(T - T_0)] \)
- B \( \rho_0 = \rho_T [1 + \alpha(T_0 - T)] \)
- C \( \rho_T = \rho_0 [1 + \alpha(1 - T_0)] \)
- D \( \rho_T = [\rho_0 + \alpha(T - T_0)] \)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \( \rho_T = \rho_0 [1 + \alpha(T - T_0)] \)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \rho_T = \rho_0 [1 + \alpha(T - T_0)] \) \(\rho_{ T }\) Resistivity at temperature \(T\). \(\rho_0\) : Resistivity at a reference temperature \(T_0\) (usually \(0^{\circ} C\) or \(20^{\circ} C\) ). \(\alpha\) : The temperature coefficient of resistivity, which represents the…

- A coil \(C_1\) is connected to a galvanometer G. Second coil \(C_2\) is connected to a battery through a tapping key. The steady current in the coil \(C_2\) produces a steady magnetic field. As coil \(C_2\) is moved towards the coil \(C_1\), the galvanometer shows a deflection. To obtain a large deflection, one or more of the following steps can be taken:
(A) Use a rod made of soft iron inside the coil \(C_2\)
(B) Connect the coil \(C_2\) to a more powerful battery
(C) Move the arrangement of coil \(C_2\) rapidly towards the coil \(C_1\)
(D) hold the key pressed continuously
