A potential difference, applied between the ends of a conductor of uniform radius 2 mm, results in an electric field 300 V/m along the length of conductor. If current in the conductor is 4 A, resistivity of the material of conductor is nearly :

a
2.8 x 10-6 Ω-m
b
11.6 x 10-6 Ω-m
c
9.4 x 10-4 Ω-m
d
16.5 x 10-5 Ω-m

detailed solution

Correct option is C
