A composite rod made up of two conductors of resistivity ρ1 and ρ2 is show in the figure. If face A and B are connected to a battery, find the resistance of the rod.
A composite rod made up of two conductors of resistivity ρ1 and ρ2 is show in the figure. If face A and B are connected to a battery, find the resistance of the rod.
Option 1 -
(ρ₁+ ρ₂)L / 4a²
Option 2 -
(3ρ₁+ ρ₂)L / 3a²
Option 3 -
ρ₁ρ₂L / a²(3ρ₁+ρ₂)
Option 4 -
3ρ₁ρ₂L / a²(3ρ₁+ρ₂)

Correct Option - 3
Detailed Solution:R? = (ρ? L)/a² R? = (ρ? L)/ (3a²)
Both are in parallel . R? = (R? )/ (R? +R? ) = (ρ? ρ? L)/ (a² (3ρ? +ρ? )
