Question

Copper coil resistance 200Ω at 0°C. Resistance at 80°C? α=0.004041 °C⁻¹.
Options
A 264.65 Ω
Correct Answer
B 264.65 kΩ
C 286.65 Ω
D 286.65 kΩ
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

R = R₀(1 + αΔT) = 200(1 + 0.004041×80) = 200(1 + 0.32328) = 200×1.32328 = 264.656 Ω ≈ 264.65 Ω.

Hint

R = R₀(1 + αΔT).
