A copper wire is stretched to make it 0.5% longer. The percentage change in its electrical resistance if its volume remains unchanged is :

A heavy ball of mass M is suspendeed from the ceiling of a car by a light string of mass m (m < < M). When the car is at rest, the speed of transverse waves in the string is 60 ms^$$-$$1. When the car has acceleration a, the wave-speed increases to 60.5 ms^$$-$$1. The value of a, in terms of gravitational acceleration g, is closest to :

Drift speed of electrons, when 1.5 A of current flows in a copper wire of cross section 5 mm², is $$\upsilon $$. If the electron density in copper is 9 $$ \times $$ 10²⁸/m³ the value of $$\upsilon $$. in mm/s is close to (Take charge of electron to be = 1.6 $$ \times $$ 10^$$-$$19C)

A rod, of length L at room temperature and uniform area of cross section A, is made of a metal having coefficient of linear expansion $$\alpha $$/^oC. It is observed that an external compressive force F, is applied on each of its ends, prevents any change in the length of the rod, when its temperature rises by $$\Delta $$TK. Young's modulus, Y, for this metal is :
