The resistance of a 5 m length of wire is 600 2 Determine (a) the
resistance of an 8 m length of the same wire, and (b) the length of the
same wire when the resistance is 420 Q
احمد حسن. . .
(a) Resistance, R, is directly proportional to length, I,
i.e. Rol.
Hence, 600 2x5m or 600=(k)(5), where k is the
coefficient of proportionality. Hence,
600
k=
= 120
When the length / is 8m, then resistance
R=kl=(120)(8) =9602

(b) When the resistance is 4202, 420= kl, from
which,
420
length /=
420
= 3.5 m
