At what temperature $(^{\circ} C)$ will the resistance of a copper wire become $3$ times its resistance at $0^{\circ} C$? (Given: Temperature coefficient of resistance $\alpha = 4 \times 10^{-3} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$)

In order to quadruple the resistance of a uniform wire,a part of it is uniformly stretched so that the final length of the wire becomes $1.5$ times the original length. The fractional length of the stretched part is

$A$ rectangular carbon block has dimensions $1.0 \ cm \times 1.0 \ cm \times 50 \ cm$. The resistance is to be measured first between the two square ends and then between the two rectangular ends. If the resistivity of carbon is $3.5 \times 10^{-5} \ \Omega \cdot m$,find the values of the resistances in both cases respectively.

By increasing the temperature,the specific resistance (resistivity) of a conductor and a semiconductor,respectively,is:

We have two wires $A$ and $B$ of the same mass and same material. The diameter of wire $A$ is half that of wire $B$. If the resistance of wire $A$ is $24 \, \Omega$,then the resistance of wire $B$ will be ................ $\Omega$.
