Dimensions of a block are 1cm×1cm×100cm. If specific resistance of its material is 3×10−7ohm−m, then the resistance between the square faces is
A
3×10−9ohm
B
3×10−7ohm
C
3×10−5ohm
D
3×10−3ohm
Answer
3×10−3ohm
Explanation
Solution
In the above question for calculating equivalent resistance between two opposite square faces.
l = 100 cm = 1 m, A = 1 cm2 = 10–4 m2, so resistance R = 3 × 10–7 ×10−41= 3 × 10–3 Ω
