Electrical resistivity is the measure of the material that can resist the electrical charge. The resistance of the copper wire at 80°C will be 146.43 Ω. Thus, option E is correct.
What is resistance?
Electrical resistance is defined as the opposing force that counteracts the electrical charge flow in the material. It is expressed in the terms of the ohms (Ω).
Resistance is calculated as,
R₈₀ = R₀(1 + αΔT)
Given,
Temperature coefficient of resistance (α) = 0.0068 °C⁻¹
ΔT = 60°C
Resistance of a wire (R₀) at 20° C = 104 Ω
Resistance of a wire (R₈₀) at 80°C =?
Substituting values above:
R₈₀ = (104 )[1 + (0.0068)(60)]
R₈₀ = 146.43 Ω
Therefore, option E. 146.43 Ω is the resistance of the copper wire at 80°C.
