Physics - Current Electricity Question with Solution | TestHub

Paragraph:Consider a block of conducting material of resistivity ' $\rho$ ' shown in the figure. Current 'l' enters at 'A' and leaves from ' $\mathrm{D}$ '. We apply superposition principle to find voltage ' $\Delta \mathrm{V}$ ' developed between ' $\mathrm{B}$ ' and ' $\mathrm{C}$ '. The calculation is done in the following steps: (i) Take current 'l' entering from 'A' and assume it to spread over a hemispherical surface in the block. (ii) Calculate field $E(r)$ at distance ' $r$ ' from $A$ by using Ohm's law $E=\rho j$, where $j$ is the current per unit area at ' $r$ '. (iii) From the ' $r$ ' dependence of $E(r)$, obtain the potential $V(r)$ at $r$. (iv) Repeat (i), (ii) and (iii) for current 'l' leaving ' $D$ ' and superpose results for ' $A$ ' and ' $D$ '.
Question:$\Delta \mathrm{V}$ measured between $\mathrm{B}$ and $\mathrm{C}$ is
