The resistance (R) of a copper wire varies directly as its length (L). Write this relation as a formula using k as the constant of variation.

Answer:

Explanation:

According to ohm's law current flowing in a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage applied across two end of conductor.

i.e. [tex]V\propto R[/tex]

[tex]V=R I[/tex]

where R=resistance

[tex]R\propto L[/tex]

[tex]R\propto \frac{1}{d^2}[/tex]

whee L and d are length and Diameter

thus [tex]R=k \frac{L}{d^2}[/tex]

where k=constant of Variation
