$A$ uniform metal wire carries a current of $2 \, A$ when an ideal cell of $3.4 \, V$ is connected across it. The wire has mass $8.92 \times 10^{-3} \, kg$, density $8.92 \times 10^3 \, kg/m^3$ and resistivity $1.7 \times 10^{-8} \, \Omega m$. Then the length of the wire is (in $m$)

$A$ wire of resistance $R_{1}$ is drawn out so that its length is increased by twice of its original length. The ratio of the new resistance to the original resistance is:

The resistance of an incandescent lamp is

Two wires are made of the same material. The length and diameter of the second wire are both double those of the first wire. What will be the resistance of the first wire compared to the second wire?

The resistance of a resistance wire is $5\,\Omega$ at $50\,^{\circ}\text{C}$ and $6\,\Omega$ at $100\,^{\circ}\text{C}$. The resistance at $0\,^{\circ}\text{C}$ will be ............. $\Omega$.
