Resistance of the wire is measured as \(2\,\Omega\) and \(3\,\Omega\) at \(10^{\circ}C\) and \(30^{\circ}C\) respectively. Temperature cocoefficient of resistance of the material of the wire is............\(^{\circ}C ^{-1}\)
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(0.033\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(R = R _{0}(1+\alpha \Delta T )\)
\(3= R _{0}(1+\alpha(30-0))\)
\(2= R _{0}(1+\alpha(10-0))\)
\(\frac{3}{2}=\frac{1+30 \alpha}{1+10 \alpha}\)
\(\alpha=\frac{1}{30}=0.033\)
