MCQ
Identify the factor which does not depend on the resistance of a conductor.
  • A
    Nature of material
  • B
    Area of cross-section
  • C
    Length
  • D
    Viscosity

Answer

  1. Viscosity

Explanation:

The resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to its length, inversely proportional to the area of cross-section, and nature of the material. The resistance of the conductor does not depend on viscosity.

A charge Q is uniformly distributed over a large plastic plate. The electric field at a point P close to the centre of the plate is 10Vm-1. If the plastic plate is replaced by a copper plate of the same geometrical dimensions and carrying the same charge Q, the electric field at the point P will become:
