Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
- For wire 1, $ \Delta \text{l=}( \frac{F}{AY} )3l $ ?(i) For wire 2, $ \frac{\text{F }’}{3A}=Y\frac{\Delta I}{I} $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ \Delta I=( \frac{F’}{3AY} )I $ ?(ii) From equation (i) & (ii), $ \Delta \text{I=}( \frac{F}{AY} )\text{3I=}( \frac{\text{F }’}{3AY} )I $
$ \Rightarrow $
