Physics Question 109 – AP-EAMCET 2026

A copper wire has a resistance of $8\mathrm{\Omega }$ at ${25}^{\circ }\text{C}$, and its temperature coefficient of resistivity is $6\times {10}^{-3}{}^{\circ }{\text{C}}^{-1}$. At ${25}^{\circ }\text{C}$, it carries a current of $36\text{mA}$ when a constant voltage is applied across its ends. If the wire is heated to ${125}^{\circ }\text{C}$, what is the current flowing through the wire now?
