The coil was shortened by 0.1 of its original length when repairing the electric tile.

The coil was shortened by 0.1 of its original length when repairing the electric tile. How many times has the resistance of a tile changed?

Problem data: Δl (change in the length of the spiral) = 0.1l1.

To determine the change in resistance of the tiles used, we use the proportion: k = R1 / R2 = (ρ * l1 / S) / (ρ * l2 / S) = l1 / l2 = l1 / (l1 – Δl).

Calculation: k = l1 / (l1 – 0.1l1) = l1 / 0.9l1 = 1 / 0.9 = 1.11 (1) times.

Answer: The resistance of the tiles used has decreased by 1.11 (1) times.
