R = rho * L / pi r^2
So L = pi r^2 R / rho
r = 0.400 X 10^-3 m
R = 100 ohm
rho = to be noted in a data book
Plugging these known values we can compute the value of length in meter'

For a single temperature, yes. The copper wire will have a much smaller cross-section than the iron wire. For multiple temperatures, no. Copper and iron have different temperature coefficients for resistivity.
Resistivity is a property of the material only, not of the dimensions of the wire. The resistance of a wire is the resistivity times the length divided by the cross-section area. So a long wire has more resistance, a thicker wire has less resistance, even if they are both made of copper with the same resistivity.
The resistivity of copper is very low and as the strip is so thick then resistance would be almost zero.
There are three main factors that affect the resistance of a copper wire: Length of the wire: The resistance of a wire is directly proportional to its length. As the length of the wire increases, the resistance also increases. This is because the longer the wire, the more obstacles (collisions with electrons) the current has to overcome, resulting in higher resistance. Cross-sectional area of the wire: The resistance of a wire is inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area. As the cross-sectional area of the wire increases, the resistance decreases. This is because a larger cross-sectional area provides more space for the flow of electrons, reducing the resistance. Resistivity of the material: The resistance of a wire is also dependent on the resistivity of the material it is made of. Resistivity is an inherent property of the material and is a measure of how much the material opposes the flow of electric current. Copper has a relatively low resistivity compared to other metals, making it a good conductor and suitable for wiring applications. The relationship between these factors and the resistance of a copper wire can be expressed by the formula: R = ρ × (L / A) Where: R is the resistance of the wire ρ (rho) is the resistivity of the material (in this case, copper) L is the length of the wire A is the cross-sectional area of the wire By adjusting these three factors, you can control and manipulate the resistance of a copper wire to suit your specific needs in electrical and electronic applications.
Conductivity is a measure of the ability of a substance to conduct electricity. Resistivity is a measure of how strongly a substance resists the flow of an electric current. So conductivity and resistivity are opposed to each other. A good conductor like copper has a low resistivity, and a good insulator like glass has a low conductivity and a high resistivity. Mathematically, conductivity and resistivity are inverses of each other, so it is quite easy to convert conductivity to resistance.
For a single temperature, yes. The copper wire will have a much smaller cross-section than the iron wire. For multiple temperatures, no. Copper and iron have different temperature coefficients for resistivity.
The question is actually wrong, they can both have the same resistance if configured differently, the real question should be which has a higher resistivity which is the electrical resistance found in a standard amount of each material. In this case Manganin has a higher resistivity than copper.
Work it out for yourself. The equation you will need to use is: resistance = resistivity x (cross-sectional area / length) Manipulate the equation to make 'length' the subject, and use 17.25 x 10-9 ohm metres as the value of resistivity.
Copper is widely use in the US, it has the second lowest resistivity, behind silver, which is much more expensive making copper the best choice. It resistivity at 20 °C is 1.72×10−8
Resistivity is a property of the material only, not of the dimensions of the wire. The resistance of a wire is the resistivity times the length divided by the cross-section area. So a long wire has more resistance, a thicker wire has less resistance, even if they are both made of copper with the same resistivity.
(rho) or resistivity of a "wire" is calculated using this formule:rho = Resistance x Area / length of materialthe resistivity of copper is 1.7 x 10 -8 ohm/mResistivity is measured in ohm metres, NOT ohms per metre!
Yes, because the resistivity does not depends on the length of any materials. Resistivity is constant.-Ariel DUmancas-No. The resistance in different materials is different. For example, Copper has a low resistance to electricity compared to plastic. This is also one reason why copper is used instead of plastic in wires. Knowing the resistance of different material helps decide what material should be use for different objects (like copper for wires in plastics)
The resistivity of copper is very low and as the strip is so thick then resistance would be almost zero.
Resistance is affected by the length, cross-sectional area, and resistivity of the conductor. The resistivity, in turn, is affected by temperature. So only by changing one of these four factors will the resistance of a conductor change. Changing voltage will have no affect upon the conductor's resistance.
Copper is not used in potentiometer due to the following reasons: 1)Low resistivity 2) High Temperature Coefficient of resistance
Copper is a material - although you can make objects from it. Resistivity is a property of materials. Resistance is a property of objects - it depends on the resistivity of the material the object is made of, the shape and size of the object, and also of where you connect to take your measurement. With all this in mind: Copper has a low resistivity. Copper objects tend to have low resistance compared to other objects of similar shape and size made of materials with a higher resistivity You can still achieve quite high resistances with a long enough piece of very thin copper wire.
