Questions  

A current I flows through a cylindrical rod of uniform cross-sectional area A and resistivity ρ. The electric flux through the shaded cross-section of rod as shown in figure is:

a
b
ρI
c
ρIA
d
ρAI

detailed solution

Correct option is B

The current density J, electric field E at the cross-section are related by J=EρMultiplying both side by A, we getJA=EAρ or  I =ϕρ   where  ϕ  is  electric flux.or  ϕ = ρI
