    A metallic wire of uniform area of cross section has a resistance R, resistivity ρ and power rating P at V volts. The wire is uniformly stretched to r
    Question

    A metallic wire of uniform area of cross section has a resistance R, resistivity ρ and power rating P at V volts. The wire is uniformly stretched to reduce the radius to half the original radius. The values of resistance, resistivity and power rating at V volts are now denoted by R', ρ' and P' respectively. The corresponding values are correctly related as ___________.
    Fill in the blank with the correct answer from the options given below.

    A.

    ρ’=2 ρ, R’=2R, P’=2P

    B.

    ρ’=(1/2) ρ, R’=(1/2) R, P’=(1/2) P

    C.

    ρ’= ρ, R’=16R, P’=(1/16) P

    D.

    ρ’= ρ, R’=(1/16) R, P’=16P

    Correct option is C
