A piece of copper is to be shaped into a conducting wire of maximum resistance. The suitable length and diameter are respectively

  • 2L and d/2

  • L/2 and 2d

  • L and d

  • 2L and d


A.

2L and d/2

We know that,

R = ρlA = ρlπr2  = ρlπr2

If the length of wire increases, then the radius of wire decreases.

To get the maximum resistance the suitable length and diameter are 2L and d2.
