Q1:

Assertion (A): The resistance of a copper specimen changes by about 22% when temperature is increased from room temperature to 700°C. Reason (R): The physical properties of a material are determined mostly by the extent of impurities.

A Both A and R are true and R is correct explanation of A

B Both A and R are true but R is not correct explanation of A

C A is true but R is false

D A is false but R is true

ANS:B - Both A and R are true but R is not correct explanation of A

The increase of resistance with temperature is governed by temperature coefficient of resistance.
