$1=\rho \frac{\ell}{ A }$$1=\frac{\rho \times 31.4}{\frac{\pi(2.4)^{2}}{4}}$
$\frac{\pi(2.4)^{2}}{4}=\rho \times 314$
$\frac{2.4 \times 2.4}{4}=\rho \times 10$
$\frac{0.6 \times 2.4}{10}=\rho$
$\frac{1.44}{10}=\rho$

    A resistance of $2 \Omega$ is comnected across one gap of a metre-bridge (the length of the wire is $100 \mathrm{~cm}$ ) and an unknown resistance, greater than $2 \Omega$, is connected across the other gap. When these resistance are interchanged, the balance point shifts by $20 \mathrm{~cm}$. Neglecting any corrections, the unknown resistance is

    An unknown resistance $R_1$ is connected in series with a resistance of $10  \,\Omega$. This combinations is connected to one gap of a meter bridge while a resistance $R_2$ is connected in the other gap. The balance point is at $50\, cm$. Now, when the $10  \,\Omega$ resistance is removed the balance point shifts to $40\, cm$. The value of $R_1$ is (in $ohm$)
