Question

A wire of length l, made of material resistivity ρ is cut into
two equal parts The resistivity of the two parts are equal to, (a)
ρ (b) 𝜌 /2 (c) 2 ρ (d) 4 ρ

Sanat K Mukherjee · Accepted Answer

Dear Student,
Resistivity of a material is a material property and depends on the
type of material and not on its dimensions Hence, the resistivity
of the two parts will be equal to ρ
Ans (a)
