A wire has resistance of \(3.1 \Omega\) at \(30^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and \(4.5 \Omega\) at \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). The temperature coefficient of resistance of the wire is

  1. A \(0.008^{\circ} \mathrm{C}^{-1}\)
  2. B \(0.0024^{\circ} \mathrm{C}^{-1}\)
  3. C \(0.0032^{\circ} \mathrm{C}^{-1}\)
  4. D \(0.0064^{\circ} \mathrm{C}^{-1}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(0.008^{\circ} \mathrm{C}^{-1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \[ \begin{aligned} & t_1=30^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \\ & R_1=3.1 \Omega \\ & t_2=100^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \\ & R_2=4.5 \Omega \end{aligned} \] We know that, Temperature coefficient of resistance,…
