45.
A conductor has a cylindrical shape with a diameter d. Its resistance is 2 Ω. It is recast into a cylindrical conductor of diameter 0.3d. The resistance of new conductor is likely to be
less than 2 Ω
less than 0.6 Ω
between 2 and 100 Ω
more than 100 Ω
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Since new diameter is 0.3 d, the new area of cross-section a (0.3 d)2.

The volume remains the same. Therefore length increase by a factor .

Hence .
