JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 3. current electricity

In the experiment of \(Ohm's law,\) a potential difference of \(5.0\, V\) is applied across the end of a conductor of length \(10.0\, cm\) and diameter of \(5.00\, mm .\) The measured current in the conductor is \(2.00\, A\). The maximum permissible percentage error in the resistivity of the conductor is

  1. A \(3.9\)
  2. B \(8.4\)
  3. C \(7.5\)
  4. D \(3.0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(3.9\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(R =\frac{\rho \ell}{ A }=\frac{ V }{ I }\) \(\rho=\frac{ AV }{ I \ell}=\frac{\pi d ^{2} V }{4 I \ell} \quad\left( A =\frac{\pi d ^{2}}{4}\right)\)…
