QNEET-2013-Ph-1599: NEET 2013 Physics - Class 12 NEET-2013-Ph-1599 Solution: Two rods are joined end to end as shown. Both have a…

Two rods are joined end to end as shown. Both have a cross-sectional area of 0.01 cm20.01\ \text{cm}^2. Each is 1 meter long. One rod is of copper with a resistivity of 1.7×10−61.7 \times 10^{-6} ohm-centimeter the other is of iron with a resistivity of 10−510^{-5} ohm-centimeter. How much voltage is required to produce a current of 1 ampere in the rods? 0.00145 V 0.0145 V 1.7×10−6 V1.7 \times 10^{-6}\ \text{V} 0.117 V

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 0.00145 V
  • B 0.0145 V
  • C 1.7 ×\times _ 10 −- _ 6 V
  • D 0.117 V

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Copper rod and iron rod are joined in series. _ R = R C u + R F e = ( _ 1 + _ 2 ) _ A ( _ R = _ _ A ) From ohm�s law V = RI = (1.7 _ 10 �6 _ 10 �2 + 10 �5 _ 10 �2 ) � 0.01 _ 10 �4 volt = 0.117 volt   ( _ I = 1A)
